BBC (Decision Notice) [2013] UKICO FS50486137 (07 August 2013)
Summary: The complainant has requested a copy of the Balen Report -Reporting the Middle East- paper JB(04)40 (the Balen Report). The BBC explained that the information was covered by the derogation and excluded from FOIA. The Commissioner-s decision is that the Balen Report is held by the BBC for the purposes of -journalism, art or literature- and does not fall inside FOIA. The Commissioner 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
