University of Exeter

The Commissioner’s decision is that the University of Exeter (‘the University’) incorrectly relied on section 21 of FOIA to refuse to comply with parts 2a and 2b of the request about student accommodation. However, the University was not obliged to comply with these parts under section 12(1) of FOIA as to do so would exceed the appropriate cost limit. There was no breach of section 16(1) with regards to parts 2a and 2b.The University does not hold the information requested in parts 2c and 2d of the request and incorrectly applied section 12(1) to those parts. With regard to those parts it breached section 10(1) of FOIA as it did not comply with section 1(1) within 20 working days.

FOI 10: Complaint upheld FOI 21: Complaint upheld FOI 16: Complaint not upheld FOI 1: Complaint not upheld FOI 12: Complaint partly upheld
