Notes:<\/p>

1. There is a reporting lag of approximately 8-months at the issuing date of this statistical output owing to the time needed to process data and time allowed to enable each cohort's assessment phase to elapse.<\/p>

2. Caseload figures rounded to nearest hundred. Totals may not sum due to the rounding method use. Proportions are rounded to the nearest whole number.<\/p>

3. Figures include those cases where the functional assessment has not been completed.<\/p>
