not published, never filled in; 2 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in week (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 51 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. Derivation as chartered: one row per band of continuous service carrying the NES minimum notice, the over-45 addition, and the redundancy weeks, each quoted from the authority with its effective date - then the thing no authority publishes: the two scales COMBINED into a single dollar figure for a given end date, service length, age, ordinary rate and employer size, with the small-business redundancy exemption and the section 123 exclusions applied, and the unfair-dismissal eligibility (minimum employment period, the indexed high income threshold, the 21-day application window) resolved on the same inputs. The threshold is indexed every 1 July, so the table is also a SERIES: the high income threshold and each redundancy band across years, and the changed-since diff at each indexation.", "embed": "
