I can confirm that my Department has received an application for a home tuition grant for the child in question. This application is currently being processed and a decision will be conveyed to the family shortly. I wish to advise the Deputy that grant payment can only be made after the tuition has taken place and confirmation to this effect has been received in my Department.
