The Senator mentioned CHO 7 and as of the end of June 2020, the figures for the assessment of needs backlog was 1,056. On 30 September 2020, that was 1,050 and at the end of October it was 1,005. In November the number was 846. I can flip this to what has been completed. In September the number of cases dealt with in CHO 7 was six while the number completed in October was 45. The number completed in November was 159.
