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 15 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 9 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 2 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 7 figures, never sentences; 114 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 disposal-date band (to 5 April 2025 at 10%, 6 April 2025 to 5 April 2026 at 14%, from 6 April 2026 at 18%) joined to the lifetime limit in force on that date and the qualifying conditions in force with it, so a completion date returns a rate, a remaining lifetime allowance and the conditions to evidence - the date-to-rate-to-limit join no single HMRC page publishes, each stating one of the three; plus the change series (11 March 2020 limit cut from GBP 10m to GBP 1m, the 2024 Budget rate ladder) and the anti-forestalling rules that decide which band an unconditional contract falls in
114 candidate sentences on these pages were refused by a reviewer; each refusal and its reason is recorded in the review ledger.
