Dear Mr Black,

I refer to your request of 22 June 2020. Unfortunately, your request is for a large quantity of information or necessitates a search through a large quantity of information and meeting the original time limit for your request would unreasonably interfere with the operations of the University. Accordingly the University has extended the time limit for your request until 10 August 2020 under section 15A of the Official Information Act. You have the right to make a complaint about this extension to an Ombudsman.

Yours sincerely,
Rebeca Ewert
General Counsel
University of Auckland

Dear Mr Black,

 

I refer to your email of 22 June 2020. The University’s response follows:

 

You have requested “the number of China Scholarship Council (CSC)
scholarships issued at the University of Auckland”. As CSC scholarships
are not issued at the University of Auckland, we have interpreted this as
a request for the number of CSC scholarships awarded to University of
Auckland students: 2013 – 23; 2014 – 30; 2015 – 23; 2016 – 16; 2017 – 26;
2018 – 15; 2019 – 21; 2020 (as at the date of your request) – 1.

 

“I would like to request information on… the amount of funding provided by
the University of Auckland and the amount of funding provided by the CSC
[in relation to CSC scholarships].”

 

The University does not award or administer these scholarships, or provide
funds to their recipients. We do not know what funds are provided by the
CSC to scholarship recipients. This technically constitutes a refusal of
this part of your request under section 18(g) of the Official Information
Act, as the information requested is not held by the University.

 

“I would also like information on the titles of PhD theses completed with
CSC funding.”

 

Titles of PhD theses completed by CSC scholarship recipients are provided
below, for those published theses which note the support of the CSC in the
acknowledgements section:
