The complainant has requested information from the BBC about the legislation of medicinal cannabis. The BBC responded that, if held, the requested information would be derogated and so would be excluded from FOIA. The Commissioner-™s decision is that this information, if held at all, is held by the BBC for the purposes of journalism, art or literature and so isn-™t covered by FOIA. He therefore upholds the BBC-™s position and doesn-™t require it to take any steps.

  • FOI 3:Not upheld
