Coverage

What's in the Index.

160,000+ tribunal records, structured — date range, geography, and the fields we structure from each decision, plus the limits of what the published record can show.

What we structure

Five families of fields

Roughly ~30 field families drawn from each published decision, coded against the HMCTS jurisdiction list. This is editorial scope, not a column list.

Parties & representation

Who was the case between — and how were they represented?
Respondent typeRespondent industryLinked to official company registry data where matchableClaimant — anonymised, aggregate onlyRepresentation, each sideLitigant in person flag

Claimant-identifying data is never exposed — aggregate only, suppressed below small thresholds.

Scope & boundaries

What's in — and what isn't.

The Index covers the published record. Saying clearly what that record cannot show is part of the product.

Methodology lives elsewhere.

Per-field fill rates, structuring accuracy by document type, and small-cell suppression rules are documented on the methodology page. This page states what the Index covers; methodology states how reliably each field is populated.

Findings are analysis built from the same structured record — patterns, awards and outcomes the HMCTS aggregates don't carry.
