Irish Speed Camera Database?

If it's illegal to use a speed camera database in Ireland, then how are these people irishspeedtraps.com getting away with it? They've been giving interviews on Radio, TV and in most papers about their web site, and now their selling their database for Garmin users with the blessing and help of Garmin. So why can't we get the Irish Database here? I know I can get it in the "Europe DB" but I'd prefer if the Irish DB was stand alone as there's to be a marked increase in Fixed Camera locations in 2008.

it's bundled in with 'europe' as all the countries use kilometres per hour as opposed to the uk's miles per hour

That's fine, makes sense, and thanks for your quick response.

It does make an interesting point about the legality issues though if they can be blatant enough to have that website. And at €35 or £26 per annum for theirs it makes our world-wide multi-format offering much more cost effective.

I had to laugh a little though, take a look at the Copyright text on the download page and then take a look at the same text on ours, coincidence? I think not. I guess it saves them legal costs!
