<p>The Home Office is unable to list the institutions that tendered unsuccessfully
for funding to carry out research into the nature and prevalence of prostitution in
England and Wales. This is commercially sensitive information owned by the Office
of the Police and Crime Commissioner for South Wales, who formally commissioned the
research. Equally, the research application itself is commercially sensitive and belongs
to the University of Bristol. It is for them to decide whether to publish information
within it.</p><p>During the application process, a question on approach to conducting
the research in an impartial manner was given the highest weighting in scoring. The
University of Bristol has therefore set out in detail how they will ensure ideological
neutrality in their approach to this work.</p>
