The reason why they’re extending it is that:
"The data collected by the 12 month stage did not provide sufficient evidence to establish whether the use of electronic monitoring is an effective tool for contact management or whether some cohorts are more suited to this form of contact management.”

This comes a year after it announced a pilot to “test whether electronic monitoring (EM) is an effective means by which to improve and maintain regular contact with asylum claimants who arrive in the UK via unnecessary and dangerous
routes”.
