Home Detention Curfew
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Home Detention Curfew (HDC) scheme applies to United Kingdom prisoners who are serving sentences of between three months and under four years. It allows prisoners to live outside of prison providing they do not breach the rules of their curfew and is designed to help prisoners prepare for life after their release.
