Summary: The complainant requested the annual budget of Radio Cornwall and the salary bands of each of its members of staff.

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.
