A Systematic Review and Risk-of-Bias Appraisal of Restoration-Time Reporting in Out-of-Order Notices at Council Public Facilities
A paper from the School of Continuous Improvement systematically reviews the out-of-order notices affixed to council public facilities, screening 1,146 photographed records in duplicate against a protocol lodged in advance and appraising the 84 eligible notices across five reporting domains. No included notice reported the pre-specified primary outcome --- a restoration date or bounded window --- leaving no data to synthesise; an apology appeared on 89% of notices, a contact pathway on 58%, and a date of issue on 31%, and a sensitivity analysis relaxing the eligibility criteria moved no element by more than two percentage points.
