| 2 | We write to seek clarification on the above mentioned tender regarding one of the Camera specifications mentioned in the tender document.
Reference is made to the following camera from Table 4, see extract clip below:
The above question refers to a Motorised Pan/Tilt Zoom camera normally associated with large open or outdoor areas. During our tender briefing and the walk around, plus the drawings provided, we noticed that all of the areas that require cameras are small to medium spaces and probably not suitable to a large motorised camera. During the walk one of the attendees asked if you require PTZ cameras and the response from Gambling Authority was no, the static cameras would be sufficient.
Our question is as follows:
1/. Do you wish us to price for the PTZ cameras as specified above,. Or should we put forward the best possible Camera solution for the areas identified on the map and the walk around ?

Bidders are informed to be mindful of the fact that the aforementioned area contain the mini safe therefore Gambling Authority expect this area to be covered with a camera that will provide best viewing capability.
