Sports Personality nominations

The request was refused by British Broadcasting Corporation.

Dear British Broadcasting Corporation,

Does a person have to be domiciled in the United Kingdom for personal taxation or just hold a United Kingdom passport to be nominated as BBC Sports Personality of the Year?

Yours faithfully,

Wayne Tully

Dear FOI Enquiries,

thank you for your response.

However, the rules do not state whether a person is ineligible if they are not domiciled in the UK or fail to pay taxes, such as VAT on a private jet.

Can you clarify this aspect or advise why paying taxes is not a a core element of being nominated?

In view of this

Yours sincerely,

Wayne Tully
