Dear Mr Buckley
Information request
Dear Mr Buckley
I refer to your request for information relating to Grant Number GL90007164.
Firstly, may I take the opportunity to apologise for the delay in responding to these
requests and thank you for bringing this to my attention. I have also, as
requested, sent you this response by way of the separate email address you have
supplied to me.
You made three requests:
1. “What recorded information can you send me that will demonstrate your grant
has raised management and leadership skills?â€
The LSC has undertaken a search and can advise that it does not hold any
information in relation to this request.
2. “Please send me the names and job titles of the organisations who benefited
from your grant.â€
The LSC holds the names of individual employees and their employer
organisations who have made applications for the bursary support which was
partly funded by the LSC grant to Common Purpose.
The LSC supplies below the names of organisations which applied for bursary
support, but is withholds other information where the LSC considers it is exempt

from disclosure under section 40(2) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000. The
LSC considers disclosure of such information would give rise to a breach of the
Data Protection Act 1998. The data subjects have not consented to disclosure of
the information, and the LSC considers they have no reasonable expectation that
the information will be disclosed.

3. “How much has Common Purpose spent with LSC during 2008-9 and
2009-10.â€
The LSC has undertaken a search and has been unable to identify any money that
Common Purpose has spent with the LSC.
For assistance regarding the Grant, I can advise that the LSC paid £25,000 into
the bursary (during 2008-9), with Common Purpose making matching contributions
to the bursary.
