Data for June is not yet available. At end-April there were 2,920 applications in progress nationally. However, these were at varying stages in the process, e.g. some applications would be incomplete and the HSE would have been awaiting further documentation in order to progress them. As of the 13 May, the HSE had approximately 1,500 applications which had been processed to final stage on hand.
