could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in GBP (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 71 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): the public register of digital verification services certified for right to work, joined to what each of those providers publishes about price: per check, in credit bundles, as a subscription tier, or not at all. The derived figures are the ones the register does not carry: how many certified providers publish a price at all (most do not), the median and range of a published per-check price, the volume at which the price break falls, and the spread between the cheapest published identity check and the most expensive managed screening package that contains the same check. A provider that publishes nothing is recorded not-published rather than estimated.", "embed": "
