Freedom of Information Act 2000
The Freedom of Information Act confers a right on individuals
to know what information is held by public authorities and to obtain
access to that information. Hence, where requested to do so, the
University has a duty to disclose information held by it, including
information held by it electronically. Some information may be absolutely
exempt from disclosure, for example, personal information and information
received by the University in confidence. Other information may be
exempt if the public interest lies in withholding the information
rather than in disclosing it e.g. information that is commercially
sensitive. As a consequence of this legislation, information
provided by users of the University's website may be disclosed to
third parties where a request for access has been made and where
no exemption applies.
Please consult our further
information about the University and Freedom of Information,
including the University’s publication
scheme.
