My officials have advised that an application form for an Emergency Needs Payment (ENP) and a request for information issued to the person concerned on 06/01/2021.

On receipt of the completed application form and any relevant supporting documentation, the ENP application will be assessed and a decision will issue to the person concerned.

I trust this clarifies the matter.
