Dear Joseph,

Please note that The University of Manchester will be merging this request with the one you submitted three minutes earlier regarding physics courses. This is under the provisions of Section 12 (4) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and is because the requests are substantially similar as they both ask for the same statistics in relation to different courses run at The University of Manchester. You will receive one response under the above reference 019-589.

Please also note that we are aware you have now made 4 requests since 06 November 2019, all of which are very similar in that they ask for the same statistics but for different courses here at The University of Manchester. There are provisions under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 at Section 14 for vexatious requests (S14(1)) and repeat requests (S14(2)). We would encourage you to think about the information that you require and submit one request for it. The effect of submitting continual requests is that it undermines the value of any public interest in them, and places an unnecessary burden on us to respond to them, to the extent that we may have to apply Section 14 of the FOIA in the future, at which point, we will no longer be required to provide you with a response.

Kind regards

Sharon
