A sex offender’s statutory obligation to provide bank account, debit and credit card details under the Sexual Offences Act 2003 (Notification Requirements) (England and Wales) Regulations 2012 reg.12 was a necessary and proportionate means of achieving a legitimate policy objective of enabling police to be better able to trace offenders who had failed to comply with their notification requirements. As such that obligation was not incompatible with an offender’s rights under the European Convention on Human Rights 1950 art.8.
