Please note – as you may be aware, in late 2024 the government analytics provider changed for operational reasons. Therefore the data for the period 11 June 2024 to 30 November 2024 is from Google Analytics 4 (GA4). The data supplied for the period from 1 December 2024 to 11 June 2025, is from our current analytics provider, Matomo.
