	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/12/2017 answer text <p>The decision to remand an individual in custody or to grant bail is solely a matter for the courts acting in accordance with the law. Where an individual has a condition of bail to reside at a particular address and it transpires that he is not, or may not, be living at that address, the court may notify the police who will investigate whether or not there has been a breach of bail conditions. If there is evidence of an alleged breach the individual can be arrested and brought before the court. The court may then either remand the individual in custody or amend the bail conditions.</p> answering member constituency Esher and Walton answering member printed Dominic Raab question first answered 15/12/2017 12:34:30 answering member 4007 label Biography information for Dominic Raab
