Note

  1. Figures have been rounded to the nearest 10.
  2. The figures do not include any letters that have been sent manually as we do not keep clerical management information on the number of manual letters sent.
  3. Volumes dropped between March 2016 and subsequent months because the activity was more resource intensive than we originally expected.
