Expanding Vehicle-specific Data Collection by LTA for More Offence Types

Mr Abdul Muhaimin Abdul Malik asked the Acting Minister for Transport with regard to the sharing in 2023 that vehicle-specific data collected by the Land Transport Authority will only be used for payment, charges and enforcement, such as against non-payment of ERP charges, whether such enforcement includes or will include enforcement of speeding violations or other traffic offences beyond non-payment of charges.

Mr Jeffrey Siow: At the moment, the ERP 2.0 system is designed primarily for payment and charges. It can also be used for enforcement, including for traffic offences like speeding, but further enhancements will be needed. The use of such data will be governed by existing laws, such as the Public Service (Governance) Act. The Member may refer to the Second Reading of the Land Transport and Related Matters Bill for more details on the use of ERP 2.0 for enforcement.
