At present we are having to prioritise our finite resources in order to
meet the unprecedented challenges we are facing during the Coronavirus
(COVID-19) pandemic. As such, we need to advise you that while we will
continue to process individual requests, you may experience some delay in
our response during the current pandemic.
Dear Mr May

Dear Freedom of Information Team,
this seems to be the answer to another FOI request. But definitely not for this one.
Yours sincerely,
Julia Klein
Thank you for emailing the East Riding of Yorkshire Council Freedom of
Information team. This account is monitored by a number of officers and
the Council will respond to you in due course.
Freedom of Information and the Coronavirus (COVID -19):
The Information Commissioner recognises the unprecedented challenges
facing local authorities during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, in
particular that resources, whether they are finances or people, may be
diverted away from usual compliance or information rights work. Whilst we
will endeavour to meet the statutory timescales we may need to adapt our
approach during this extraordinary period and you may experience
understandable delays when making requests for information.

Dear Ms Klein
Thank you for your email. I am not sure why you have received our response to EIR 87 as I have checked our records and the sent email and the correct email address has been used which is quite different to the one you are using above. Also we do not appear to have any requests for yourself on record and therefore do not have your email address stored on our files. If you have submitted a request which you are awaiting a response for, please could you confirm either the FOI or EIR reference number which you will find on our acknowledgement letter, or if you have not received an acknowledgement letter, please could you re-send your request.
Please accept my apologies for any inconvenience.
Yours sincerely

Dear Joanne Bateson,
I do not have an open request with your institution, I assume it has to be a problem on the side of whatdotheyknow.com
Very interesting and weird how that could happen, but we can't really do anything about it.
So I hope you have a great day and sorry for the inconveniences.
Yours sincerely,
Julia Klein

Please Note:
In relation to Q5-Q8, both the GRE and GPA scores are not available in an
easily reportable format. The datasets are incomplete as we do not know
the final GPA of all offer holders. In addition, as students do not
necessarily attend university in their home country, the marks submitted
are not always in the same format. Given these issues, it is not be
possible to answer these question this within the cost limits identified
under FoI Section 12.
If you think that the information provided does not meet your request,
contact Rachael Maguire at [1][email address] or write to
Louise Nadal, School Secretary, London School of Economics and Political
Science, Houghton Street, London, WC2A 2AE. We will then review the
response to your request and get back to you within 20 working days. You
can also contact the Information Commissioner's Office
[2]http://www.ico.gov.uk/, though they expect the internal review to be
carried out before receiving a complaint directly.
The provision of information by the LSE under the Freedom of Information
Act 2000 does not imply a right to copy, reproduce publish or otherwise
use such information. Copying or reproducing such information in any way
