The answer

Answered by Derek Mackay on 10 Jun 2015 · 12 days after it was lodged, on time

The operation and enforcement of the average speed camera system on the A9 is the responsibility of Police Scotland and the relevant safety camera units. The Scottish Government does not hold any of the requested information. This is a matter for Police Scotland.
Since the system went live on 28 October 2014, through to 20 April 2015, Police Scotland advises that 1,744 vehicles have been detected exceeding the speed limit and warranted further action.
