While the decision on eligibility for a student grant is a matter for a student's local grant awarding authority, my Department understands that a delay has arisen in processing the grant application from the student in question because the application was not accompanied by some of the necessary supporting documentation. The grant awarding authority has advised my Department that it has sought this documentation from the student and that it will be able to take a decision on the application as soon as this is received.
