These orders impose strict conditions on offenders, designed to prevent further criminal behavior, with violations resulting in immediate imprisonment.

One of the most notable cases is that of Thierry Piron, 35, of no fixed address. Piron was sentenced to 20 months in prison after appearing before Lewes Crown Court on 22 August.
