Methodology
Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through the estate's 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).
2 of the 21 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 19 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 4 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere.
The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in year (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 4 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded.
Derivation as chartered: one row per jurisdiction per control parameter - cold water below 20 C, hot water stored and distributed, sentinel outlet monitoring interval, tank and calorifier inspection interval, review trigger, record retention, notification duty - each quoted verbatim from that jurisdiction's own authority with its effective date; the cross-jurisdiction comparison (which regimes set a fixed review interval and which, like GB, deliberately do not) is the figure, and the risk-assessment template is GENERATED from the ACOP's own required contents rather than written as an opinion; changed-since on every read.
4 candidate sentences on these pages were refused by a reviewer; each refusal and its reason is recorded in the review ledger.
