The complainant has requested information relating to asbestos at Television Centre 2 including asbestos registers, records related to removal, asbestos surveys and test and details of minutes of meetings relating to the removal of asbestos. The BBC refused the request on the basis it would exceed the cost limit under section 12 of the FOIA to comply. The Commissioner’s decision is that the BBC has correctly refused the request under section 12 but failed to fulfil its obligations under section 16 by providing advice and assistance at the time of the request. The Commissioner now requires the BBC to provide the complainant with advice and assistance to assist in narrowing the request.FOI 12: Complaint not upheld FOI 16: Complaint upheld
