No application for an Exceptional Needs Payment (ENP) has been received from the person concerned. An application form for Supplementary Welfare Allowance, together with a request for supporting documentation and the contact details of the department’s Community Welfare Service has been sent to the person concerned. Once a completed application for Supplementary Welfare Allowance has been received it will processed as quickly as possible.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
