The complainant has requested confirmation of any conditions or controls attached to the Bank of England (BoE)’s purchasing of assets, with particular reference made to the Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) and other financial institutions. The Commissioner’s decision is that the requested information, to the extent that it is held, relates to the ‘monetary policy’ of the BoE and does not fall under FOIA. He does not therefore require the BoE to take any further steps as a result of this notice.
