Whilst UCL is committed to openness and transparency, we are also mindful
of our obligations under the Data Protection regime, and therefore take
steps to anonymise data before it is released. We adopt the following
approach when releasing statistics that relate to people, to prevent
unauthorised disclosure of information that relates to individuals:

•               Numbers of individuals are rounded to the nearest multiple
of five – so if the figure is 102 individuals, this is rounded to 100. Any
number lower than 2.5 is rounded to zero.

We have identified that, even providing information on an anonymous basis,
there is a risk of the identification of underlying individuals from the
information that you have requested. This information would be personal
data of such individuals or, if linked with other personal identifiers in
the public domain, would be likely to become personal data. Personal data
is exempt from disclosure under Section 40(2) of the Freedom of
Information Act 2000 (FOIA) by virtue of Section 40(3A)(i). To avoid
potential identification of individuals we have applied rounding to the
number of individuals to the nearest multiple of five.

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 these
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.

As the Section 40(2) exemption is an absolute one, there is no need to
conduct a public interest test.

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.

complaint or request a review of our decision, please email
