The complainant requested information relating to commissioning polls by the BBC and polling companies used. The BBC responded that the requested information was covered by the derogation and hence excluded from the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that most of the information was held by the BBC for the purposes of journalism, art or literature and so was not covered by the FOIA. Following the Commissioner’s investigation, the BBC disclosed information requested in part 3 of the request. She upholds the BBC’s position on the rest of the request and requires no remedial steps to be taken in this case.

FOI 3: Complaint partly upheld FOI 1: Complaint partly upheld
