Steve Collett draws on the experience of Greater Manchester Probation Service's involvement in the tagging pilot to argue the nature of the response to electronic monitoring could be a crucial factor both in the development of sentencer and public confidence in the Probation Service, and, by extension, in the future of the Probation Service itself. Steve Collett is an Honorary Fellow, Departement of Sociology, Social Policy and Social Work, Liverpool University, and an Assistant Chief Probation Officer in Greater Manchester.  vV.45,n.1dMarch 1998pp.3-9tProbation JournalcLondon  aCONTROLO ELETRÓNICO  aCOLLETTbSteve  jP.105
