A young person moves in to a **specific premises**. ARC keeps the history of where they have lived, so a move between premises in the same service keeps their record.

## What you record

- The premises they are moving in to.
- Their **legal status**: section 20, care order, interim care order, remand or relevant child.
- Any flags that apply: UASC, age disputed, NTS or NRPF.
- Their date of birth. It is required for every young person in supported accommodation.

## The Regulation 28 notice

Regulation 28 asks you to tell the host local authority when a young person is admitted and when they leave. ARC adds the **admission notice** as a task when the young person moves in, and the **discharge notice** when they move out. Complete the task when you have sent the notice.

## The first move-in at a premises

The first young person to move in to a premises makes it **open**. That is also when the 72-hour notice to Ofsted under Regulation 34 falls due, and it is when the premises starts to be billed. See [Pricing and what you are billed for](https://arccare.co.uk/help/supported-accommodation/pricing).
