 "methodology": "Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through our fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2). 6 of the 14 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 8 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 0 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source for each breakdown it prices, in GBP (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences for one breakdown), so a page that gives figures for several breakdowns gives one for each and N counts 17 figures, 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 application route per nation: the fee as the regulations state it with the date it took effect and the indexation rule that moves it each 1 April, beside the statutory determination period from the practice guidance, beside each council's own pre-application charging schedule - which the regulations do not set and which nobody aggregates. The derived figures are the spread of pre-application charges for the SAME enquiry across authorities, the real elapsed cost of each route (fee plus pre-app plus the agent-fee median from the agent index), and the annual step every indexation makes.",
