Response: 

Unfortunately Thurrock Council are unable to provide the information you have requested.  This is because we do not hold this information.

This is not a data set we collect consistently as diversity data is discretionary to each individual. Although we do check nationality as part of the eligibility criteria, for GDPR reasons we only record whether a person is eligible or not.
