The person concerned applied for a mortgage interest supplement on 29th November 2012; however his application was incomplete at the time. An effort was made to contact him via telephone but this proved unsuccessful. A letter has since been sent to him apologising for the long delay in bringing this matter to a conclusion. A contact number has been made available to him should he wish to discuss this delay in person and to make an appointment to meet with a relevant officer to process his claim. In advance of this he can also attend the local clinic at Roselawn Health Centre any Tuesday or Thursday morning between 10am and 11am he can be interviewed by a member of staff and have his application fully completed and made ready for a decision.
