Dear Ms Corderoy,
I am writing in response to your recent request for information under the
Freedom of Information Act 2000 (‘the Act’).
I can confirm that no gifts, grants or research funding have been rejected
by the University during the period in question. Two prospective
donations of stock to the library, made by telephone, were refused as they
required collection from distance in the UK. Under section 1(1)(a) of the
Act I can confirm that we do not hold any details of the individuals in
question as only a single telephone call took place in each instant.
Yours sincerely,
Julie Archer
