Stop unlawful detention for ill-fitting electronic tags

Gaie Delap was forced back to prison just because there isn’t an electronic tag that fits her – and she’s not the only one

Case overview

Gaie Delap was recalled to prison not because she broke the terms of her licence for home detention. In fact she’d been carefully abiding by all conditions of her sentence, since she was convicted for peaceful action to protest the climate crisis.

The only reason Gaie was forced to return to prison is because there isn’t an electronic tag to fit her. Gaie’s deep vein thrombosis means she can’t wear an ankle tag and the government won’t provide one to fit a woman’s wrists.
