December 2025: Delivered a robust date validation enhancement for the CommunitiesUK EPB data warehouse search parameters, strengthening input handling and reliability. Fixed a bug where badly formatted dates could slip through and cause downstream errors. Implemented dedicated unit tests to verify the new behavior and prevent regressions. This work improves data accuracy in search results, reduces user-facing errors, and lowers support burden for data discovery workflows. The change is anchored by commit 72065a66d7101b86cb86234785232b6377ee1a82 with updates to the search params validator.

Monthly summary for 2025-11: Delivered targeted infrastructure and data-management improvements across two repositories, focusing on security, maintainability, and data governance. Key changes include: upgrading bastion host OS to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS with security update enablement; enabling deletion of green deals alongside cancelled EPC handling and removing outdated AC-Reports rules; and correcting assessment search end-date handling to reflect user input. These changes reduce risk, streamline operations, and improve accuracy in search and data workflows.
