Yes. They were introduced in February 2011 as a mandatory fitment to all-new model being introduced to the UK.
Some manufacturers were allowed to sell cars without DLRs after 2011 - because the model was already on sale before the European rules came into force. However, given your Focus was launched in 2014, it doesn't fall into this category.

Relaxed but still enjoyable to drive, well-equipped for the money, a huge choice on the used market.
