The change in Advanced licences over the year should be treated with some caution. It appears to show that the number of Advanced licence holders increased by 1336. There was, however, an unexpected drop of 2857 in December 2006 that may have been related to the introduction of a new online licensing system. It could be that the apparent large increase is caused by some of those that were dropped coming back into the licence figures.
