"Raw" facts
I believe the answer is:
data
<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">raw facts</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for data that I've seen before include "Facts given" , "Collection of bits of information" , "Numerical facts" , "Known facts" , "Facts and figures as processed by computer" .)
