Dear Benjamin,

I acknowledge receipt of your email dated 23rd September 2020.

Your request will now be dealt with under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and has been allocated reference FOI20-332 which should be quoted in all correspondence. We will respond to your request research projects within 20 working days starting the next working day after receipt, therefore you can expect to receive a response no later than 22nd October 2020.

Please note that in order to fulfil your request we need to liaise with other teams across the University. Due to the current Coronavirus pandemic most staff are now working remotely, and it is likely that there will be a delay in responding to your request.

However, we will do our best to meet this deadline and keep you informed should we be unable to do so.

In some circumstances a fee may be payable and, if that is the case, we will let you know. A fees notice will be issued to you, and you will be required to pay before we will proceed to deal with your request.
