the data pipeline

UK data release calendar

When the official data behind the British Resilience Index updates. Dates marked confirmed come from the publisher's own release calendar; dates marked expected are derived from the publisher's stated cadence and typical timing, and can move.

Release policy: each release is named for the month following its data cutoff, carries a data cutoff of the 25th, and is published within ten days of that cutoff, so it normally appears in the last week of the cutoff month or the first week of the month it is named for. Source publications up to the cutoff are incorporated; later ones appear in the next release. The index publishes every month regardless of how many indicators updated, and each review states how many did. The cutoff, not the month in the name, is what tells you how current the data is, and it is recorded on every release.
