This is an annual-report figure shown for review, not a published NDPC statistic.
Evidence registerOpen the source conflicts and period notes3 records
Sector jobs reported for 2024
The 2024 report value is retained as a distinct source record. It is not selected as the published figure.
Sector jobs for 2024, retrospective table
The 2025 report’s retrospective-table value conflicts with the 2024 report. Both records remain visible until reviewed.
Audit filings record
This calendar-year 2023 figure is retained as its own record and must not be combined with later reporting-cycle totals without a reviewed metric definition.
Publication rule
Numbers are not promoted by proximity.
A public result needs a complete source reference, a printed page, a metric definition, and a recorded review decision. Until then, this dashboard keeps the annual-report figure visible but clearly marked as review pending.
