If they breach these, they can be returned to custody. HDC allows reintegration back into the community in a controlled and supervised way, which research suggests may help to reduce the risk of further offending.</p><p> </p><p>The attached table shows the number and proportion of offenders released on Home Detention Curfew, in each year since 2010 by offence group.</p> more like this
