Time to first published rating

71 days median · 85 days average
across 245 newly listed businesses since 2022

Rank 165 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.
