Two labels can appear on these cards: black box for members seated at least two years with no lobby meeting on record at all, and sloppy for members who leave out the Register ID in at least 40% of the entries where they name an organisation that is in the Transparency Register (on 10 such entries or more, and at least 5 left out). Neither is a finding of a rule breach - how both are counted.
