  • Decision(s) FOI 1: Not upheld, FOI 10: Upheld

The complainant requested information from the University of Hertfordshire (“the University”) about trigger warnings, content warnings and content notes issued to students for certain modules of its English Literature degree course.
The Commissioner’s decision is that, on the balance of probabilities, the University does not hold further information within the scope of the request. However, in failing to respond to the request within the statutory timescale, the Commissioner has determined that the University breached section 10(1) of FOIA.
The Commissioner requires no steps to be taken as a result of this decision.
