Just trying to understand what would that statement indicate for next/future visa bulletins. It can be deciphered in different dimensions ie:
- all visas have been allocated and all upto priority date have been allocated (second one may not be true) .. this leads to no retrogression (or) no movement in next bulltin
- all visas allocated and not all people allocated .. which may lead to retrogression in next bulletin

There are many other combination of interpretations as well.
