RED-LIGHT CAMERAS

The Hon. R.B. SUCH (Fisher) (14:04): Supplementary, sir—

The SPEAKER: Yes.

The Hon. R.B. SUCH: —to the Minister for Police. Will there be warning signs on both sides? I notice that with some of the cameras, which I fully support being introduced. Will they have signs on both sides in all cases with these new cameras?

The Hon. M.F. O'BRIEN (Napier—Minister for Finance, Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (14:05): Yes, they will, and I agree that the deterrence is not only in the fact that the cameras are there but that drivers are actually aware of their presence.
