Users should also note an ad hoc publication will be released covering the use of the newly introduced Exceptional Case Funding. These figures have not previously been published and are provided to meet growing public interest in this area from Parliamentary questions and Freedom of Information requests. The early introduction before the next scheduled publication is to meet this rising demand.
