Notes
- The amounts the scheme has paid and offered since it opened in April 2019, as the Home Office gives them at the end of each month; it gives its first five quarters, to June 2020, as quarters, which are left out here.
- The claims paid count each claim that has received a payment, primary, estate and close family claims together; the claims received and decided are the Home Office's own totals since the scheme opened.
