  • The UK government recognizes that electronic monitoring is a valuable tool with flexible and wide-ranging potential and is committed to unlocking the potential of new and existing technologies in the EM space to serve and strengthen the country's criminal justice system. The government recently announced additional funding of GBP 183 million (USD 224 million) over the next three years to kickstart the EM Expansion Program and aims to increase the EM caseload from around 13,500 in the previous year to 25,000 by 2025.
  • In addition, in January 2022, the minister of Justice signed a three-year contract with electronic monitoring provider Buddi Ltd. The starting date of the agreement was February 1, 2022, and consisted of the lease of 20 ankle bracelets. Further, in the United Kingdom, facial recognition smartwatches are soon expected to monitor migrants convicted of a crime. Under new plans from the Home Office and the Ministry of Justice in August 2022, foreign offenders would have to scan their faces up to five times a day using instruments equipped with the technology.
