The Criminal Injuries Compensation Tribunal, which has responsibility for the administration of the Scheme of Compensation for Personal Injuries Criminally Inflicted, is independent of my Department in the processing of individual applications under the Scheme.

However, to be of assistance to the Deputy I have made enquiries with the Tribunal and have been informed that the Tribunal wrote further to the applicant's legal representative on 3 December 2018.
