Dear Mr McGovern

Thank you for your email below. As set out in the response letter, the
BBC does not offer an internal review when it considers that the
information requested is not covered by the Act. In these cases, the
Information Commissioner's Office has agreed that requesters may appeal
directly to the ICO, and details of how to do so are set out in the
letter.

Yours sincerely
