Following completion of the evaluation of the applications received by my Department under the programme, I announced provisional grant allocations on 25 July and 29 August last.
The application in question was unsuccessful and a letter advising the organisation accordingly together with a copy of the assessment carried out on the application, including any specific reasons for the application being unsuccessful, was issued to the organisation on 6 August 2003.
