1. This figure is not low. The report includes data on the first six months of the trial. Individual plans are reviewed every 12 months (unless requested / required earlier), at which point achievement of plan goals (some of which are long term) is determined.
2. Achievement of individuals achieving their plan goals is on track. No remedial actions are
required at this point in time.
