Notes:

1 The data for the final quarter of 2002 are not fully available, and do not therefore include December applications.

2 All figures are rounded to the nearest 5 to protect against individual identification, and data are presented quarterly due to small monthly numbers involved.

3 Data includes RM Officer and Other Ranks, but excludes small numbers of RN personnel assigned to the Commando units.

4 The data indicate the periods in which the PVR application was recorded, which may be slightly later than the date of submission, due to managerial or administrative delays.
