Note: Figures are provided from our current national case management system (CMS). The unit of measurement is a case and is counted upon receipt of the application from the Court and entry into our CMS. A case can involve multiple children and multiple application types. The CMS is a live system and any late entries will be accounted for upon the release of subsequent updates to this data.
