The following errors were detected after publication of the Annual Report 2006–07.
Page 38

Page 68, Table 32
The last measure in the table is incorrectly described as '40 sanctions issued where there has been breach of visa and/or sponsorship conditions'. The measure should refer to '408 sanctions'.
Page 70, final paragraph
The final paragraph incorrectly notes the number of sponsors who were formally warned or had a bar imposed on sponsoring workers. The paragraph should read:
'During the year, 313 sponsors were formally warned and 95 sponsors had a bar imposed on sponsoring further workers, including 14 who had their sponsorship agreement cancelled.'
This error was addressed in an erratum inserted in the annual report prior to distribution.
