All prisoners released under the End of Custody Supervised Licence are subject to a set of standard licence conditions as identified by Probation in their release management plan such as non-contact requirements, exclusion zones or GPS tagging.

These are not requirements in every case as conditions are set for individual prisoners to create the best chance of reducing reoffending and protecting the public.
