How the seals work
The small ringed chips beside figures across this site are SourceSeals: each names its source and links to the primary URL above, with the retrieval date in its tooltip. The freshness of time-sensitive pages is tracked on the reform tracker, which carries the site's last-verified stamp, and every page footer records its own lodgement line.
