Our advisors will proceed with the application process if your business is eligible. If not, they will be able to talk you through our other services that can help you. The Evaluation Process An Evaluation meeting is held every month where potential projects are assessed and either accepted, rejected or deferred for further information. Successful projects are appraised by the Board and, following their approval, grant conditions are posted to the promoter. The normal application process is turned around in 6-8 weeks.
