We aim to process 80% of all Exceptional and Complex Case applications within 25 working days of receipt. This includes Emergency applications which are processed more quickly. Emergency applications are made where there is no time to submit a substantive application (for example due to an imminent hearing) and it is not possible to exercise delegated authority to grant emergency funding | 83% |
We aim to process 90% of all Exceptional Case Funding (ECF) applications within 25 working days. This excludes time any applications are on hold, for example if we need further information to be able to make a decision. Urgent ECF applications are monitored separately and we aim to process those within 10 working days. Urgent ECF applications are those where services are requested to deal with an emergency and we agree that the case should be considered in a quicker timeframe (rather than rely on backdating provisions). | 86% |
