Members of the Committees and other University staff involved should note that the process of consideration is strictly confidential and that certain documentation may not be disclosed to applicants or other persons who are not members of Committees or otherwise appropriately involved in the process.
The University’s policy in relation to data protection legislation (the General Data Protection Regulation as supplemented by the Data Protection Act 2018) requires that confidentiality of information provided by referees, including information contained in written assessments by Heads of Institutions, is respected insofar as this is compatible with that legislation.
