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 24 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 22 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 5 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 active (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 8 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded.
Derivation as chartered: the FCA Financial Services Register's general-insurance intermediaries, read through the sanctioned data extract rather than scraped, joined to Companies House SIC 66220 and to the BIBA and CII Chartered rosters, and then to the one field nobody joins: whether the firm's Register record carries a WEBSITE at all, whether that website resolves, and what it publishes.
The derivation is the digital coverage map of a regulated category - how many authorised brokers per region and per permission, how many hold Chartered status, how many are BIBA members, how many have no live site, and the gap between the 16,627 companies Companies House lists under SIC 66220 and the far smaller number the FCA actually authorises, which is the single most quotable figure in this market and is published by neither register on its own
8 candidate sentences on these pages were refused by a reviewer; each refusal and its reason is recorded in the review ledger.
