I don't think there's any problem at all about information -- defined
as you do it. Quoting is the problem.
Check your publishers' fair dealings rules and apply them here, and
add a "don't say X didn't like her job", and you'll be fine.
(The DPA -- which may also be relevant -- doesn't affect your kind of
use either.)
