Where a court imposes electronic monitoring requirements as a condition of bail, the requirements must include provision for making a person responsible for the monitoring.

A person may not be made responsible for the electronic monitoring of a person on bail unless he is of a description specified in an order made by the Secretary of State.

The rules may make different provision for different cases.

Any power of the Secretary of State to make an order or rules under this section is exercisable by statutory instrument.

A statutory instrument containing rules under this section shall be subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament.

For the purposes of section 3AA F2, 3AAA or 3AB a local justice area is a relevant area in relation to a proposed electronic monitoring requirement if the court considers that it will not be practicable to secure the electronic monitoring in question unless electronic monitoring arrangements are available in that area.

Nothing in sections 3, 3AA F2, 3AAA or 3AB is to be taken to require the Secretary of State to ensure that arrangements are made for the electronic monitoring of persons released on bail.
