BBC (Decision Notice) [2010] UKICO FS50313474 (25 October 2010)
Summary: The complainant requested the sum of money that was spent on the BBC-™s Winter Olympics 2010 coverage. The BBC stated that the request fell outside the scope of the Act because it was for information held for the purposes of journalism, art or literature. The Commissioner-™s decision is that the BBC correctly determined that the requested information is held for the purposes of journalism and therefore the BBC is not obliged to comply with Parts I to V of the Act.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 1 - Complaint Not upheld
