<table><tbody><tr><td><p>There is no specific requirement for an offender to attend
residential detoxification as a condition of their sentence. However, residential
treatment may be provided within a Drug Rehabilitation Requirement (DRR) or Alcohol
Treatment Requirement (ATR) through locally commissioned residential addiction recovery
services. In England, these services are funded by local authorities, as part of their
public health responsibilities. In Wales, health, including substance misuse services,
is devolved to the Welsh Government. The table below shows the overall number of DRRs
and ATRs commenced under community orders and suspended sentence orders in England
and Wales since 2010. <table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Year</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Number
