Answer
A central point of contact does not exist for the schemes. However, the status of applications can be checked by the following means.
A helpline is available for applicants to the Small Business Support Grant scheme. The helpline number is 0300 200 7809 and is open from Monday to Friday, 9am - 5pm.
For the £25,000 Retail, Hospitality, Tourism and Leisure Grant, queries on the status of applications should be sent to Business-Support-Grant-Scheme@economy-ni.gov.uk.
