SCPOs already have built-in safeguards—they must be applied for by relevant authorities and authorised by the High Court or the Crown Court, and they are subject to appeal—but we will monitor the effectiveness of the orders. As I have said, they are serious orders, and this is a serious change in order to address the problems that we are discussing. We will therefore monitor through detailed data collection, including rates of compliance with orders, breach proceedings and related enforcement actions. That data will be analysed not only for operational insight but to help to shape future policy.
