Dear Mr Wong,

 

We have completed the compilation of information in response to your
request.

 

We can confirm that we do hold the information of the description
specified in your request and this information is given attached.

 

Please note that we have not provided an answer to question 3 as we have
provided the requested breakdown of nationality on non-EU students for
question 2.

 

As you can see, exact counts of four or less have been withheld because
these are personal data of third parties or, if linked with other
personal identifiers in the public domain, would be likely to become
personal  data. This information has been withheld under section 40(2) of
the FOIA by virtue of s40 (3)(a)(i).

 

Section 40(2) of the FOIA allows a public authority to withhold 
information under the FOIA where (i) the requested information is
personal  data relating to someone other than the requester and (ii) its
disclosure  would breach any of the Data Protection principles. In this
case we  believe that the requested information could relate to and
identify  individuals and therefore would be personal data. The disclosure
of this personal data would not be within the reasonable expectations of
the individuals concerned and it would be unfair to do so; this therefore
breaches the first data protection principle.

 

It is for these reasons that this information is exempt under section
40(2) of the Act.

 

You are free to use any information supplied for your own use, including
for non-commercial research purposes. The information may also be used for
the purposes of news reporting. However, any other type of re-use, for
example by publishing or issuing copies to the public, will require the
permission of the copyright owner.

 

If you are unhappy with our response to your request and wish to make a
complaint or request a review of our decision, please email
[email address]. Emails should include the words ‘Internal Review’
in the subject and be marked For the Attention of the Vice Provost
Operations, alternatively you should write to:

Please note, complaints and requests for internal review received more
