Ms Niamh O'Donoghue:
For the initial engagement, 5,338 failed to attend. Following a further invitation and a warning about the consequences of non-engagement, of the 5,338 just 308 failed to attend the second scheduled appointment. When those cases were examined by deciding officers, penalty rates were imposed on 52 of those 308.
