As the Deputy will be aware under the terms of the Scheme of Compensation for Personal Injuries Criminally Inflicted the Criminal Injuries Compensation Tribunal is entirely independent in the matter of individual applications for compensation under the Scheme. However, in order to be of assistance in the matter I have had enquiries made with the Tribunal on his behalf.

I understand that the application in question has recently been submitted, along with other applications, for consideration by a Tribunal member. I am informed that as soon as the member's decision comes to hand a copy will be forwarded to the person concerned.
