ICO The complainant has requested the payments to the contributors, viewing figures and the number of complaints made against the programme ‘Welsh Heartland: The Llyn Peninsula’. 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.
