University of Cambridge
The complainant has requested from the University of Cambridge (‘the University’) information in the form of peer reviewed academic studies that reached a certain conclusion about persons with a high level of perceptual reasoning. The request was one of three submitted in the same month. The university initially refused the requests as not valid under the FOIA. At review the requests were refused under section 12 (exceeding the fees limit) and section 14 as a “grossly disproportionate burden”. The Commissioner’s decision is that the university was correct to cite section 12. She also finds that the university did not breach section 16(1). The Commissioner does not require the university to take any further steps.FOI 12: Complaint not upheld FOI 16: Complaint not upheld
