Dear Ibrahim,
Many thanks for your enquiry below dated 22 January 2024 in relation to interviews and offers for our A100 Medicine degree programme. Before I can proceed to process your request however under the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 (FOISA), I would be grateful if you could confirm your surname please.
I am asking for this point of clarification as part of the University's duty under Section 15 of the FOISA is to provide advice and assistance to enquirers. Details of your name is important for two reasons:
* For a request to be valid under section 8(1)(b) of the FOISA the name of the applicant needs to be stated in the enquiry - a request with only the first name of an applicant in the body of an email does not meet this requirement.
* To safeguard your own rights. In the event that the University answered your enquiry in such a way that you were unhappy with the response given, after an internal review, your next course of action would be to appeal to the Scottish Information Commissioner. The Commissioner however, is unable to deal with any applications where it is found that the original enquiry was invalid as in this case.
Your request is considered to be invalid at present and will therefore be held pending until I hear from you further.
Kind Regards
June
