As well as that, GPS tags will be attached to more burglars released from prison.


Speaking on the new measures, UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson pledged to ensure "less crime, fewer victims and a safer society" with the country on its recovery from Covid-19.

Kit Malthouse is the Policing minister:
