Oddly, part of my reply was missing.
As I said, there are currently 720 rows in the people table.
The will be a new assessment record for each person roughly every six months.
The dataset will be open ended so will slowly but indefinitely grow.
The part that was missing was that there will be new people records added who
initially will not have an assessment. They will still need to be included in
the report.
