Overarching statistics on submitters

There were 487 submissions in response to the public consultation documents and online survey, and feedback from around 600 attendees at the roadshows and site visits. Consultation feedback traversed a range of submitters, sectors and organisation sizes, as set out in the following charts and tables.

Note: Many submitters likely misunderstood this survey question and entered ‘organisation’ (which is intended to cover entities such as a representative bodies) when they should have entered ‘employer’. This means that the proportion of employers is likely to be larger, and organisations smaller.
