Referrals

Referrals that are not endorsed either needed to supply more information to support the referral or the Review Panel wasn’t satisfied eligibility criteria had been met, based on the information provided.

This doesn’t necessarily represent a final decision. NASCs and EGL sites can resubmit with further information or evidence, as required.

All referrals for community support were endorsed.
