    I am writing to ask for your help with a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.

    On 27th August 2019, you kindly sent us Commitment, Contribution, Distribution, Value and IRR as of 31st December 2018 of MRC Pension Scheme's private equity/venture capital funds. We were extremely grateful to receive this data, as it is very helpful for our research.

    Do you have more recent records, specifically Commitment, Contribution, Distribution, Value and IRR as of 31st March 2020? This list should include all such partnerships, i.e. private equity, venture capital, distressed debt, mezzanine, fund of funds, real estate, natural resources and private debt investments. If so, is it possible for you to send them to us?

    Would you also be able to provide me with an up to date account of any current direct investment asset allocations to private equity and venture capital direct investments you may have, and where possible the name of the asset/company invested in, the value of the initial investment and the date of the investment?
