For question 1 and question 2 we are unable to provide the specific data requested, as the numbers involved are very small. Releasing this information could risk the identification of individuals, even in anonymised form.
In line with Section 38(1)(b) of FOISA – Personal Information – we are withholding this data to protect individuals’ privacy. Where figures are very low, there is a heightened risk that individuals could be identified through deduction or association, which would constitute a breach of data protection legislation.
