 "methodology": "Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through our 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). 6 of the 14 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 8 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 0 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source for each breakdown it prices, in year (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences for one breakdown), so a page that gives figures for several breakdowns gives one for each and N counts 8 figures, never sentences; 19 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): one row per duty per jurisdiction quoted verbatim from the authority with its effective date - the VAT liability of a livery package and the special-purpose-stable exception, the rateable-value basis for stables, the licensing boundary (hiring out horses is licensable, livery alone is not), the equine identification deadline, the manure exemption's tonnage and setback distances - and the derived answer nobody publishes: what share of the price index's published prices are VAT-inclusive given each yard's package shape, and which duties changed since the last read",
