[2013] EWHC 2208 (QB)

A variation to a sexual offences prevention order, which required the subject to wear a tagging device whenever he was away from his registered address, was a prohibition, not a mandatory requirement for positive action, and was therefore a valid measure under the Sexual Offences Act 2003 s.107 and s.108. Measures restricting a subject's movement in public places were essentially negative requirements, even if the subject was required to be proactive in doing something.
