Greater London Authority, GB implements GPS tracking pilot for domestic abuse offenders

Greater London Authority, GB GPS Tracking Pilot

In Progress

The authority will tag domestic abuse offenders upon their release from prison during the one-year pilot. This first-in-the-U.K. program deters offenders from entering exclusion zones or violating terms of release. Law enforcement officials also use GPS tracking as evidence when offenders are accused of criminal activities. Greater London Authority modeled the tracking pilot on a 2019 program that tagged offenders who served sentences for violent acts with knives.
