Refusal rate

Refusal rate is refusals divided by decisions on the merits (approved plus refused). Across 2020–2024 Casey also recorded 440 withdrawn and 160 no-permit-required outcomes council-wide; none is a decision on the merits, so none is counted here. These are the council’s figures for all applicants, not SQM’s own outcomes.
