Hi bugsy

The simple way of getting the accurate answer would be to ask probation

For a few months probably. Don't miss any appointments or be late!
Sure .. But need to ask your case officer first.
You have a passport and are not banned from travel, are you?

should if behaved!!

the probation service used to be there to help you. Now they are just an extension of the prison service. Wouldnt trust them with a barge pole.

The probation service is primarily an enforcement agency. From their website:

"The Probation Service is an agency within the Department of Justice and Law Reform. We play an important role in helping to reduce the level of crime and to increase public safety by working with offenders to help change their behaviour and make good the harm done by crime. We are the lead agency in the assessment and management of offenders in our community."

If they happen to help offenders along the way, all well and good, but it is not their prime function.

The probation service is nothing more than an extension of the prison service as ive already said (and experienced)
