The Government approved the drafting of a wide-ranging Sexual Offences Bill last December. The General Scheme of the Bill includes provisions for the electronic monitoring of sex offenders in specific circumstances. It is not possible to indicate at this stage when the Bill will be published and the legislation enacted.
