The document contains survey results from multiple choice questions about awareness of and application for public appointments. For awareness of opportunities, under 30 were least aware (29%), 30-50 were somewhat aware (A little aware), and over 50 were most aware (Very aware). For reasons for not applying, the most common were "No - never occurred to me" (28%), "Yes - considered but didn't apply" (24%), and "No - did not think qualified" (14%). Small percentages did not apply due to time, demographic background, health, or unattractive salary/benefits. The results are broken down by ethnicity and disability status, with some groups more likely to consider but not apply
