The table provides a breakdown of the number of student grant applications processed by Student Universal Support Ireland (SUSI), on a weekly basis since September. It is broken down into new application assessment, which is the first step in assessing an application received, and pack assessment which includes the supporting documentation subsequently received. This information has been provided to my Department by SUSI.
