Notes: Orders where the client did not/was unable to comply or transferred from another jurisdiction are included in the 'not known/applicable' category. These cases are not included in the percentage figures. The first induction/case management meeting involves clarifying health and safety procedures, requirements and expectations, and drawing up a case management plan.
1. Figures for 2012-13 to 2014-15 have been revised from those previously published due to the receipt of updated information from some councils.
