Dear Mr Turnbull

TfL Ref: 1379-1516

Thank you for your email received by us on 23 October 2015 asking for
current hard copies of the Big Red Book guidance publication for bus staff
and London Underground staff handbook, The Knowledge.

Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of
the Freedom of Information Act and our information access policy. I can
confirm that we hold some of the information you require.

Attached is a pdf the latest edition of the Big Red Book publication. Also
attached is an edition of The Knowledge that we do hold; this particular
publication is no longer in circulation. Its replacement has only been
made available via staff devices, therefore we are unable to provide you
with a copy.

Please note that in accordance with section 11 of the Act, we have
provided the information you have requested in an accessible format where
by you can print a hard copy for your own use, as the cost to us of
printing and posting a hard copy to you is not reasonably practicable on
this occasion.

If this is not the information you are looking for, or if you are unable
to access it for any reason, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to
appeal as well as information on copyright and what to do if you would

Dear Mr Turnbull

Thank you for your email. We will look into the pages you state are missing below and respond shortly.

Regarding printing both the guides, in accordance with section 11 of the FOI Act a requester may express a preference for having the information communicated by a particular means, namely a hard copy of the information, however a public authority is only obliged to make the information available by the preferred means so far as reasonably practicable. This will depend on factors such as how the information is held, the cost of complying with the preference and the public authority’s resources. If required a public authority may charge a fee to cover the cost of communicating the information in the specified format.

In this instance the information you seek is held in electronic format and has been provided to you as such. You mention that these guides are printed in bulk for use by drivers. This will be done too assist staff members in performing their duties on the transport network and as you are not a member of staff and these guides will not assist you in performing your duties, the financial cost of providing hard copies for you is not considered reasonable.

As advised in our previous response, you are able to print your own hard copy of each guide from the electronic versions we provided.

Yours sincerely

Emma Flint
Information Access Adviser
