The data requested was provided in the answer of 12 September 2017 (UIN 6928).

It should be noted that the appeals data provided by the Ministry of Justice in this response referred to claimants’ appeals heard in the hearing venue nearest to the appellants’ home address. For appellants identified as living in Gower those appeals are attributed to the Llanelli, Port Talbot or Swansea venues.
