SOAS University of London (School of Oriental & African Studies)

Summary wording for website: The complainant requested information from SOAS University of London (School of African & Oriental Studies) about scholarship awards. SOAS provided the information but redacted part of the contents of four specific emails. The Commissioner’s decision is that SOAS correctly made the redactions under section 40(2) of the FOIA because the information comprises the personal data of a third party. The Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any steps.
