Whilst we will continue to receive a comparatively low number of new applications, we expect the queue reduction trend to continue. However, at the same time, grace period requirements require us to assess more evidence and, as such, applications may take longer to process. We are also seeing a number of older applications move from a 'dormant' to a 'live' status. As with any application process, we rely on timely and complete answers from applicants to help us move things forward. Policy areas Environmental programmesRO
