When a youth part directs that an action or charge is to be removed to the family court the youth part must issue an order of removal in accordance with this section. Such order must be as follows:
1. It must provide that the action or charge is to be removed to the family court of the county in which such action or charge was pending, and it must specify the section pursuant to which the removal is authorized.
2. Where the direction is authorized pursuant to paragraph (b) of subdivision three of sections 722.20 or 722.21 of this title, it must specify the act or acts it found reasonable cause to believe the defendant did.
3. Where the direction is authorized pursuant to subdivision four of section 722.20 or section 722.21 of this title, it must specify the act or acts it found reasonable cause to allege.
4. Where the direction is authorized pursuant to section 190.71 of this chapter, the court shall annex to the order as part thereof a certified copy of the grand jury request.

Where a securing order has not been made, the order of removal must provide that the police officer or peace officer who made the arrest or some other proper officer forthwith and with all reasonable speed take the juvenile to the designated family court or, where that cannot be done, it must provide for release or detention in the same manner as provided for a family court proceeding pursuant to section 320.5 of the family court act.

Whether or not a securing order has been made, the order of removal must specify a date certain within ten days from the date of the order of removal for the defendant's appearance in the family court and where the defendant is in detention or in the custody of the sheriff that date must be not later than the next day the family court is in session.
