We have sought feedback and advice from our external and internal subject matter experts about how we calculate the estimate. Based on the advice and assessment, the reliability rating for this estimate is medium with a score of 18.
We have stratified the sampling process to ensure it is representative of the wider population.
We also engage with former Deputy President of the Administrative Appeals Tribunal, Mr Stephen Frost, for further assurance. He verifies the accuracy and quality of a sample of the audit results that underpin our estimate.
