Rank 288 of 362 UK authorities (1 = fastest).

Measured from a business appearing in the published FSA dataset to its first rating appearing there. Authorities publish with delays (appeal windows, batch updates), so this reflects the register's speed, not necessarily inspection speed.

Latest published ratings in Guildford

New inspection results as they appear on the register, most recent first. Ratings are published with a delay, so these are publication dates, not inspection dates.
