How many announcements does one camera need? You could say that it was announced in February, this year, but that would be far too obvious. It's getting like the announcement chain that precedes government works: first you announce the intention, then the feasibility study, then the plan, then the budget funding, then the confirmation of the plan, then the start date etc etc…

It also needs a Tender advertised in the news paper, and an environmental impact study, and the neighbors need to sign off on it through the council petition form.

They just changed the Australian Prime Minister again in the party room ......... so no we cannot relate to elections ! maybe to a velvet coups ? lol

I voted for 2016 just because I was being pessimistic and hoped I as wrong. Sad to see it will actually be 2016.

Since it must be tested in the wild 1st & no one has seen it yet,I go for 2016 sometime,but maybe before Xmas..if we've been good this year
