The Bill provides power to impose electronic monitoring as a requirement of a Serious Crime Prevention Order (SCPO). It also provides for the power to impose interim SCPOs whilst an application for a final order is pending. SCPOs, introduced by the Serious Crime Act 2007, are civil preventative orders that can impose tailored prohibitions, restrictions and requirements on a person for a period of up to five years to prevent or disrupt their involvement in serious crime. SCPOs may be imposed where a court is satisfied that a person has been involved in serious crime, and it has reasonable grounds to believe that the order would protect the public by preventing, restricting or disrupting involvement by the person in serious crime. There is an indicative list of ‘serious offences’ in Schedule 1 to the 2007 Act for which an SCPO can be applied. Serious offences include fraud, money laundering, terrorism, drug and people trafficking. Examples of measures that can be included in an SCPO are also set out in the 2007 Act, they include restrictions on movement, association with others, phone and social media usage and finances.
