BBC (Decision Notice): ICO 16 Apr 2014

The complainant has requested information concerning the 2013 series of Strictly Come Dancing. 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.
