These zones will restrict offenders' access to certain locations and monitor them using technology. Breaching these conditions could result in jail time. Survivors express cautious optimism about these plans, emphasizing the need for action rather than empty promises. A survivor shared her experience and desire for specific restriction zones to protect her and her children during routine activities.
Ministers will seek to introduce restriction zones that will limit where abusers can go, aiming to allow survivors to go about their daily lives without fear of seeing their offender.
