Description

Adelaides Smart City programme includes Smart CCTV. The CCTV is capable of FRT and license plate recognition at the least. The Council of Adelaide will manage the CCTV and they have proposed to ban police using the facial recognition capabilities, even though police will have 24hr access to the cameras.

Adelaide City Council is replacing its ageing CCTV network with 360-degree cameras that have the capability for facial and number plate recognition, as well as low-light performance and object tracing. The council originally planned to leave what functions were utilised to the discretion of SA Police (SAPOL), but an amendment proposed by councillor Phil Martin means the camera's FRT capabilities cannot be accessed. "The police will be asked to provide a formal agreement that they will not use FRT unless, and until, the Parliament of SA passes legislation providing guidelines," he said 1

.

The council last night passed a motion to prevent SAPOL from using the “camera facial recognition technology unless, and until, the parliament of South Australia adopts legislation”. The amendment, brought forward by councillor Phil Martin, relates to a project to replace the end-of-life “City Safe CCTV network” owned by the City of Adelaide and SAPOL at a cost of $3 million. It will see the “administration seek a formal undertaking from SAPOL that it will not use [facial recognition capabilities]” when the new CCTV network is delivered in the next 18 months 2
