hello @biotechy . i have question regarding FOI. in FOI table the first tables. that shows the 2024 2025 2026. Monthly visa on hand applications. are they just primary numbers or total . for example March 2026 491 says 2091 applications. does that include primary and secondary both.

This would be a relief if it is an offshore grant
