Time to first published rating

74 days median · 102 days average
across 418 newly listed businesses since 2022

Rank 180 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.
