Details

These statistics focus on the 3 months’ worth of new information since the last release. It also updates figures provided in previous releases, to reflect additions to and revisions of the source data.

Note that robust data is only available for claims that began at least 8 months ago due to the time required to arrange and complete assessments and record and process data. Thus only claims made before end February 2012 are included, but statistics can present actions on them to August 2012.
