Dear City of Glasgow College,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of City of Glasgow College's handling of my FOI request 'Number of lecturers on precautionary suspended'.

I do not believe it would be possible to identify individuals by asking for numbers of those on precautionary suspension now or since 2018. I am concerned there has been a blanket refusal of this request. I am also concerned the internal review has to be sent to the same person as answered the original FoI. I am further concerned that College Secretary is also the Data Protection Officer, is this correct?

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/n...

Sarah Collins
