BBC (Other): ICO 6 Oct 2016

ICO The complainant has requested information relating to travel and accommodation expenses of the Director of News and Current Affairs. The BBC responded to some parts of the request but said that parts 2-6 and 8 of the request were covered by the derogation and excluded from FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that parts 2-6 and 8 of the request is held by the BBC for the purposes of ‘journalism, art or literature’ and does not fall within the scope of FOIA. She therefore upholds the BBC’s position and requires no remedial steps to be taken in this case.
FOI 1: Not upheld
