We’d tagged a record 15,700 offenders and defendants at the end of March 2024. That's a 14% increase since the same time last year.

Tags can steer offenders and defendants away from crime by verifying their location and using their sweat to monitor their alcohol consumption.

🚫Sexually explicit deepfakes🚫

We’re creating a new offence so anyone deliberately making a sexually explicit ‘deepfake’ image or video of another person without consent can be prosecuted.

If these horrific images are shared, offenders could face jail.
