Disgraced paedophile Gary Glitter has been released from prison.
The shamed pop star, whose real name is Paul Gadd, was jailed for 16 years in 2015 for sex crimes against a girl under 13.
Glitter has three days to register his name with his local police station.
He must tell authorities seven days in advance of any foreign travel, and officers can veto any trip if they fear a risk of further offences taking place.
The sex predator will also have to wear a tag and tell police if he enters into a relationship with someone who has a child under 18.

The Ministry of Justice said freed sex offenders are monitored by the police and Probation Service and may be jailed again if they breach strict conditions.
It follows reports that Glitter's 17-year-old daughter works gruelling 12-hour shifts in a poultry factory in Vietnam.
Truc Ly's mother Tran Thi Kim Oanh said: 'He should take responsibility and help her, but I don't think he ever will.'
Truc Ly said: 'I miss my school and my friends but it's too late for me to go back to school even if I wanted to. I just want to look after my mum now.'
Glitter was freed in 2008 and returned to Britain, where he was jailed again in 2015 for child sex abuse dating back to the 1970s
