 "summary": "WGI re-observed all 67 employers on 23 October 2026 against the 23 September baseline. No employer changed its published AI rules: 0 reclassifications on the same record and field. Not counted as change: one WGI coding correction (Baker McKenzie, statement located on its official UK graduate FAQ; candidate-use rules located 31); wording edits with the same coding at Clifford Chance, Roland Berger and the UK Civil Service Fast Stream; one moved page (HSBC). Method change, disclosed: from this version official applicant privacy notices count for the employer-side fields only, for 10 employers with no candidate guidance located; they are listed separately and never merged into the candidate-use counts. Two such statements (L.E.K., Sidley) were observed but not coded.",
