We will send the newest monthly permit snapshot when DETE publishes fresh data, with employer, sector, county and nationality context.
The backend comparison contract selects only published DETE periods. Partial years are aligned to the same common published months on both sides. Missing exact months are not converted into published zeroes, and a zero baseline does not produce an infinite percentage. See the DETE methodology for source and revision notes.
