What an arrival and a departure mean here

An establishment “arrives” the first month its approval number appears in a snapshot, and “leaves” the last month it appears. That is what the data supports, and no more: the file records the absence, not the reason. A departure can be a withdrawn approval, a closure, a merger, a renumbering, or a corrected record.

⚠️ April 2022 is not a mass closure. 1,122 establishments disappear from the file that month — 797 in Scotland and 325 in Northern Ireland — because the file stopped covering them, and none returns. They are excluded from every departure count on this site.
