Referral dates are known only for applications that have a published decision. They are not counts of all incoming referrals. Publication delays mean recent months are incomplete, and historical figures can change. Rent increases and decreases are subsets of decisions, grouped by decision month and comparing the new payable rent with the original rent on an equivalent annual basis. Unchanged rents, missing figures and strike-outs are excluded from these two lines.
