This is what we are trying to find out. For every 100 applicants - it is a very simple figure - how many final decisions are refusals? It is not interim decisions, in other words, it is not the initial or review decision but when people are allowed to go to appeal, how many final decisions are refusals? If they do not appeal it, do people just accept first time that it is a final decision? What we are trying to get are terminal decisions on each application to give us some sense of how many out of 100 are claiming on medical grounds. That will give us useful information with regard to the issue I raised earlier.
