Freedom of Information requests
King’s College London routinely publishes information about the FOI requests that we have received and how we have responded to them in our disclosure log. Please visit the log to search or browse through past requests before submitting a new request. For a request to be considered valid under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, it must:
- be in writing;
- include a name and address for correspondence (email address is sufficient);
- detail the information requested.
The easiest way to make a request is to email info-compliance@kcl.ac.uk. However, you can also submit your request by post to the following address: Information ComplianceDepartment of Business AssuranceKing's College LondonRoom SW1.09Somerset House East WingStrand CampusLondon WC2R 2LS The university must respond to requests within 20 working days by:
- confirming whether it holds the information, and
- either providing a copy or summary of the information, or informing the requester why the information has been withheld.
There is also some helpful guidance from the Information Commissioner's Office on how to make a request. For more information on withheld information, please visit our exemptions page. Internal Reviews If you are not satisfied with the university's response to your request for information, you may request an Internal Review by writing to: nformation ComplianceDepartment of Business AssuranceKing's College LondonRoom SW1.09Somerset House East WingStrand CampusLondon WC2R 2LS Email: info-compliance@kcl.ac.uk Requests for internal review should be submitted within 60 calendar days of the date of the response to your request. When submitting a request, please detail why you do not agree with the initial response and what factors you would like to be taken into account as part of the review. Where applicable, this should include any public interest arguments for disclosure. Though there is no statutory deadline for responding to Internal Reviews, the university will endeavour to issue a response within 20 working days of receipt. If the review will take longer to conduct, you will be told why and when you can expect a response.
