How much has been spent on (a) repairing and (b) maintaining speed cameras in each of the last five years, broken down by local authority.

The eight Safety Camera Partnerships across Scotland provide the Scottish Safety Camera Programme Office with a projection of costs associated with maintenance for the following financial year. The partnerships are then allocated funding based on this projection, which may not reflect the actual cost of maintenance in that year. If the partnership does not spend its full allocation, funding can be recovered by the Scottish Government and reinvested in other safety camera activity.
The following table sets out the financial projections for maintenance costs for the eight Safety Camera Partnerships over the last five years:
