Grace on fossil fuels

The request was refused by Girton College, Cambridge.

Dear Girton College, Cambridge,

This is a formal request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.

Could you please provide any email correspondence, and information relating to the recent Regent's House Grace relating to fossil fuel ties from 01/11/2022 and 31/03/2023.

To keep information retrieval focused, please search email records of:

(1) The Head(s) of House (Master/s, President/s or similar), Senior Tutor and Bursar, and any deputies thereof.

(2) College lists consisting of: fellows; governing body.

(3) All members of college council or analogous body.

Key word searching: “fossil fuel”, “grace”, and “Regent House” would direct searches to the following information within the time constraints of the request.

If you are to invoke Section 43 to withhold information in relation to any of these questions please note you must provide details of the exact FOIA exemption, details of who would be prejudiced by this information, and a public interest test justifying a conclusion with arguments for and against the release of the information.

If you are to invoke Section 12 to withhold information in relation to any of these questions please provide details of how locating, retrieving and extracting this information would exceed the appropriate limit of £450 as set out in the Freedom of Information and Data Protection (Appropriate Limit and Fees) Regulations 2004. Please also be aware of your duty under section 16 (1) of the Act to advise and assist me in narrowing my request to bring it within the appropriate limit.

Thank you very much for your assistance with this request. If you would like any clarification on the information I have asked for, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. I look forward to receiving your response in the next 20 working days.

Could you also kindly confirm upon receipt of this email.
