The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in day (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 28 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): one row per immigration route or status: whether it permits work at all, any limit on hours or type of work, whether it can be evidenced by a share code or only by a document, whether an eVisa exists for it, and when the follow-up check falls due. Derived: how many of the routes now evidence only digitally (the direction of travel from biometric documents to eVisas is the whole reason the share code keyword exists), and the count of routes carrying an hours limit an employer can breach without knowing.", "embed": "
