and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 1 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in day (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 21 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. Derivation as chartered: one row per jurisdiction per rule, quoted verbatim from the authority with its effective date: the definition of fair market value, the safe-harbour conditions and the 12-month presumption, what counts as a qualified appraiser, the standard of value a tax authority applies, and the professional standard a report must be written to. The derivation is the CROSS-JURISDICTION comparison - what the US, UK, Australian and Canadian authorities each demand of the same report, where they agree and where they do not - plus changed-since on every read, which is how a rule change becomes the news.", "embed": "
