DA modification reviews (DAMRs)
| Type | Sep-24 | Oct-24 | Details |
|---|---|---|---|
| Average assessment days | 62 | 63 | |

| Determined | 1,175 | 1,060 | |
| Lodged | 1,116 | 1,251 |
(1) Average assessment days are calculated by dividing the total calendar days between lodgement date and determination date of all applications determined, divided by the total number of applications determined within the selected time period. Calendar days include weekends and public holidays. The percentage change between the current month and previous month is rounded to one decimal point. This is calculated from the raw assessment times (unrounded) for those months. There may be a perceived discrepancy when the 'total' average assessment time for current and previous month are equal, but the percentage change is slightly above or below '0'.
(2) Cost of development is for approved applications, based on data provided by participants. The dollar value is measured in millions ($m) rounded to one decimal place.
Note: Blank cells signify that no applications were determined in that period.
