<p>Electronic Monitoring is an effective criminal justice tool. It gives those on
a tag a chance to maintain family ties and remain in work or education while providing
additional safeguards.</p><p> </p><p>The table below provides details of the average
number of individuals on electronic tagging orders from January 2013 to March 2018.
This is Management Information, is not published and has not had the level of scrutiny
and quality assurance as for Official Statistics data.</p><p> </p><p>The table below
also provides information on how many notifications for new orders were issued every
month from April 2014 to March 2018. The table from where the data is drawn can be
found in Table 12.4 at <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/annual-hm-prison-and-probation-service-digest-2017-to-2018"

Data for 2014 is of poor quality and not available. Data from April 2018 to March
2019 will be published in July 2019.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td colspan="3"><p><strong>Average

These figures are drawn from administrative data systems. Although care is taken when
processing and analysing the returns, the detail collected is subject to the inaccuracies
inherent in any large scale recording system.</p><p>(2) Monitored subjects are unique
subjects with a live EM order and with a tag fitted and Home Monitoring Unit (HMU)
installed.</p><p>(3) Note that from the 12/07/2016 the Manchester caseload definition
changed to include subjects with an active EM order. Previously it only included subjects
with an active EM service. This means that subjects on a break in their service are
included in the Manchester figures. This was done to align the Manchester and Norwich
caseload definitions.</p><p>(4) One subject may be given multiple orders over the
course of the year. In these figures each is counted individually. i.e. one person
with four orders counts as four.</p><p>(5) Comprises notifications of new electronic
monitoring orders received by the EM contractor that started between April 2014 and
March 2018. In some cases the monitoring equipment may never have been installed,
e.g. if the subject is taken into custody prior to installation. These cases are included
in the total.</p>
