August 2026 is still running, so this report covers 1 August to 17 August 2026 and is compared against the same day range of the previous month. Figures are counted by the application date recorded in the register. Our index is refreshed hourly, but the registry publishes new applications with a delay, so the most recent days are always under-reported and will rise as records arrive.
