Dear Ms Scott, 
 
Re: Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 – Request for Information 
 
Thank you for your email which was received by the University on 13 October 2009 timed 
09:00hrs, clarifying the following information: 
 
“When I use the term "no-strings donations" I am referring to 
     amounts of money donated to the university where the donor does not 
     require the university to provide any goods or perform any services 
     or provide anything by way of reciprocal benefit in exchange for 
     the monies donated. 
      
     It has been drawn to my attention that, for universities, the year 
     end is 31 July rather than 31 March. If it would be helpful to you 
     please consider that my request relates to years ending in 31 July 
     2003-2009 rather than March as stated in my original 
     request.” 
 
Your Clarified request is as follows: 
 
How much did you receive by way of "no-strings" donations in 
 
     year ended 31 July 2003 
 
     year ended 31 July 2004 
 
     year ended 31 July 2005 
 
     year ended 31 July 2006 
 
     year ended 31 July 2007
