    Are CCTV cameras a valuable crime fighting aid?

    The issue of CCTV cameras will be brought into focus in tomorrow's sitting of the House of Keys.

    Douglas North MHK, Bill Henderson will ask Home Affairs Minister, Juan Watterson, what value his department places on CCTV as a prevention and detection tool, and specifically how valuable CCTV has proved up until now.

    He'll be asked how many criminal cases have been aided by the use of CCTV footage.

    Douglas South MHK, Kate Beecroft will also be seeking to find out if the Minister will implement a code of practice and licensing system for the use of cameras.

    Tomorrow's sitting will get underway at 10am.
