Extent: S

(1) A court may not impose a restricted movement requirement requiring the offender to be, or not to be, in a specified place unless it is satisfied that the offender's compliance with the requirement can be monitored by the method specified in the requirement.
(2) Before imposing a restricted movement requirement requiring the offender to be in a specified place, the appropriate court must obtain and consider a written report by an officer of the local authority in whose area the place is situated on—
(a) the place, and
(aa) the suitability of the place (particularly with a view to maximising the prospect of the offender's compliance with the requirement and minimising the risk of reoffending by the offender),

(3) The court may, before imposing the requirement, hear the officer who prepared the report.
