Generally, if your offence is of low seriousness, only one requirement will be added to your order. Up to three or four can be added in more serious cases. Supervision usually, but not always, forms one requirement of your order.

You will be supervised by a member of the offender management team - either a Probation Officer or a Probation Service Officer. They will meet with you on a regular basis to ensure that you are complying with the order. However, they will work closely with colleagues in the Interventions team who will arrange or deliver any other requirements to which you have been sentenced. They will work out a supervision plan for your sentence which you will be shown and which will be discussed with you. You may also ask about any assistance that you need with education or training.
