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.
