- About your sentence:
The Court has sentenced you to either a Suspended Sentence Order or a Community Order with one requirement being the Prohibited Activity Requirement. Effectively the Court fels that you have been doing something that needs to cease. For example you may have been causing trouble at football matches and the Court have ordered that you stop attending.
Your responsible officer will explain this aspect of your sentence to you, and highlight the area(s) you are unable to enter/attend.
- Your 'Responsible Officer' will:
- Explain your sentence to you
- Explain what will happen to you if you fail to undertake the reuquired work (you may be returned to Court)
- Review your progress and assist you in completing the activity sucessfully.
- Treat you fairly and with respect
- What you should do:
- Adhere to the required specifications
- Make sure that you understand what is expected of you, and ask questions if you do not know
- Demonstrate respect to those Probation staff you come into contact with, and others you meet during your sentence.
- Inform Probation staff if there are changes to your circumstances; i.e. your address of telephone number.
- If you are having problems with your sentence tell the Probation Staff.
- Let your responsible officer visit you at home if they need to
- If you are taken back to Court, the Court may:
- Make you do more requirements.
