BBC (Decision Notice) [2011] UKICO FS50410577 (07 November 2011)
Summary: The complainant requested information about the BBC decision making in deciding to share its F1 coverage with Sky. The BBC explained the information was covered by the derogation and excluded by the Act. The Commissioner-™s decision is that this information was held by the BBC genuinely for the purposes of -˜journalism, art or literature-™ and did not fall inside the Act. He therefore upholds the BBC-™s position and requires no remedial steps to be taken in this case.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 1 - Complaint Not upheld
