This section applies where a community order is in force.
In the case of any community order (whenever the offender was convicted), the offender—
must keep in touch with the responsible officer in accordance with any instructions the responsible officer may give the offender from time to time, and
must notify the responsible officer of—
any name which the offender uses but which is not mentioned in the community order, and
each of the offender’s telephone numbers and email addresses (if any).
The offender must comply with subsection (2)(b) in relation to a name, telephone number or email address as soon as reasonably practicable after the order is made or the person first uses that name or obtains that telephone number or email address.
An obligation under this section is enforceable as if it were a community order requirement of the community order.
The obligations under subsection (2) apply in relation to community orders made before (as well as those made after) section 192 of the Crime and Policing Act 2026 comes into force.
