Summary: The complainant requested information relating to any written communications that His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales or anyone acting on his behalf had had with the BBC over a certain time period. The BBC stated that the requested information fell outside the scope of the Act because it is information held for the purposes of journalism, art or literature. The Commissioner-™s decision is that the requested information is genuinely held for the purposes of journalism. Therefore the BBC is not obliged to comply with Parts I to V of the Act.
