BBC (Decision Notice): ICO 15 Jan 2013

The complainant has requested the number of complaints made against Panorama broadcasts. The BBC explained the information was covered by the derogation and excluded from FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that this information was held by the BBC for the purposes of journalism, art or literature and did not fall inside FOIA. He therefore upholds the BBC’s position and requires no remedial steps to be taken in this case.
