Prevention of Family Violence (Technological Monitoring to Ensure Compliance with a Protection Order, and Risk Assessment – Temporary Provision) Bill

Translated from Hebrew: הצעת חוק למניעת אלימות במשפחה (פיקוח טכנולוגי להבטחת קיומו של צו הגנה, והערכת מסוכנות - הוראת שעה)

TL;DRA proposal to authorize the use of technological tracking to enforce protection orders in cases of domestic violence, for three years.

Translated from Hebrew

What does the bill do?

The bill defines a mechanism for installing technological monitoring means (such as tracking bracelets) on a person against whom a protection order was issued in a domestic violence offense. The unit dedicated to this, maintained by the Ministry of Interior, will monitor the location of the monitored person and warn them upon entering a warning range. The bill sets conditions for imposing monitoring: a real concern of a violation or a high danger, and an appropriate risk assessment. For minors for whose protection such an order was issued, additional restrictions will apply, including a requirement for the consent of the parents or guardian. The bill is a temporary provision valid for three years from the day it takes effect.
