The Recovery of Costs (Remand to Youth Detention Accommodation) (Amendment) Regulations 2024

These Regulations amend the Recovery of Costs (Remand to Youth Detention Accommodation) Regulations 2013 (S.I. 2013/507) by inserting a new amount that designated authorities are liable to pay the Secretary of State in respect of each night which a child is detained on remand in a young offender institution (increased from £328 to £329), a secure training centre (increased from £838 to £921) and a secure children’s home (increased from £834 to £887). Where the secure children’s home is a secure 16 to 19 Academy, the amount is £772. A secure 16 to 19 Academy is a new type of youth detention accommodation as defined in section 1B(7) of the Academies Act 2010 (c. 32) and is a type of secure children’s home under the Children’s Homes (England) Regulations 2015 (S.I. 2015/541) for which a separate applicable amount applies.
