Changes to reporting approach and frequency
Following user consultation, from January 2026 we intend to divide the publication into 2 distinct publications with quarterly reporting cycles. These will be:
- a publication based on the client level data collection
- a publication based on the Capacity Tracker data collection
The tables within these publications will display monthly data, with 3 months of new data published every quarter in January, April, July and October.
We intend to release the first of these publications on 15 January 2026. Dates for future publications will be announced on the GOV.UK publication release calendar.
