Pro-stude, Not heard of anyone being chopped on refresher for a couple of years, mostly due to the re-streaming (sorry "role confirmation") sending people elsewhere. Chop rates are also down at valley (came as a surprise to TGDA that one! had to introduce even more re-streaming to cover it!)
but as noted "normality" is almost back, as fewer and fewer people are getting re-streamed, and it appears to be less arbitrary than in the past, but the numbers coming into linton are down to the required levels and the holds between linton and valley are nigh on sensible!
