BBC (Decision Notice) [2013] UKICO FS50509879 (22 October 2013)
Summary: The complainant has requested information about BBC editorial control and definitions of words used by editorial staff or in programmes. The BBC explained the information was covered by the derogation and excluded from the FOIA. The Commissioner-™s decision is that this information is held by the BBC genuinely for the purposes of -˜journalism, art or literature-™ and does not fall under the FOIA. He therefore upholds the BBC-™s position and requires no steps to be taken.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 1 - Complaint Not upheld
