University costs cutting

The request was refused by University of Edinburgh.

Dear University of Edinburgh,

How much does the University consider it needs to save from pay and non-pay expenditure (capital and general operating costs) in order to remain (a) solvent, and (b) a going concern in 2020/21, 2021/22 and 2022/23?

Yours faithfully,

Ms Crowley

Records Management, University of Edinburgh

Thank you for your email. The University’s working arrangements are

While we will make all efforts to respond to requests promptly, please be
aware that in some cases unfortunately we will not be able to respond
within statutory timescales. The [1]Scottish Information Commissioner’s
Office and the [2]Information Commissioner’s Office have both issued

the body of your email your request will not be valid.  To ensure your
request is valid and that the University is obliged to answer it, you must
provide your real name.  If you are making the request on behalf of
someone else you must provide their real name.  The Office of
the [3]Scottish Information Commissioner's guidance on this point explains
that if you do not provide your real name or the name of the person on
whose behalf you are making the request, you will lose your right to
appeal to the Commissioner should you be unhappy with the handling of your
request. The guidance also explains what constitutes a real name for the
purposes of making a request valid. Please refer to the guidance for
