The ICOB Power Up Reclassification Appeals Process has now closed to applications. It was intended to allow businesses in the retail, hospitality and beauty sectors that were not eligible for ICOB and the Power Up grant because they misclassified their business during the ICOB registration period, an opportunity to register for those grants.

Local Authorities are currently processing the applications received and payments to eligible applicants will be made without delay.
