November 2024 — hmrc/pension-scheme-return-frontend: Key data quality improvements, bug fixes, and a streamlined user-context fetch. Features: Pre-Population Data Cleaning Across Land/Property, Member Payments, Shares, and Loans to ensure accurate carry-forward data (commits PSR-1572, PSR-1576, PSR-1578, PSR-1577). Minimal Details Retrieval Enhancement: refactor to use a new endpoint and determine user context via a loggedInAsPsa flag. Bug fix: HowManySharesPage path corrected to place totalShares correctly (PSR-579). Impact: reduces stale-tax-year data, lowers error rates, and improves user experience. Technologies demonstrated: data cleansing, endpoint-based refactoring, and context-aware user retrieval.
