has been rounded to the nearest 10 and nearest percent.</p><p>‘#’ means fewer than
5 in this category.</p><p>There will be some degree of retrospection in these figures
over time due to changes in individual case outcomes, particularly with appeals. It
is expected that there will be lower numbers of completed appeals in recent months
due to the time lag in appeal completion.</p><p>Latest available data to October 2017</p>
