My Department will be writing to all applicants in the coming weeks and the reasons why applications were deemed invalid will be outlined to the relevant applicants. I think that it would be appropriate that the designated club contact would be informed first of the reason or reasons why an application may have been deemed invalid. Some of the reasons why local applications were deemed invalid include: insufficient own funding or no evidence of own funding; work on project already commenced; no evidence of freehold/leasehold/letter from landlord; no quotations/estimates submitted; and no evidence of planning permission or application for same or letter from technical supervisor stating that planning permission is not needed.
