Dear Mr Bain, 
 
Freedom of Information request – RFI20182115 
 
Thank you for your request to the BBC of 15 November 2018, seeking the following information 
under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (‘the Act’):   
 
“Please explain where you got money from to start a BBC enterprise? The BBC as far as I’m aware 
is a public funded corporation that taxes the public to transmit propoganda. If I need to submit 
another FOI I will be contacting my MSP.” 

 
Under section 14(2) of the Act, we are not required to respond to repeat requests. The 
Information Commissioner’s guidance with respect to repeat requests states that where a public 
authority has previously complied with a request for information, it is not obliged to comply with a 
subsequent identical or substantially similar request from that person. This request is a repeat of 
your FOI request RFI20181336.  
 
Appeal Rights 
 
If you are not satisfied that we have complied with the Act in responding to your request, you 
have the right to an internal review by a BBC senior manager or legal adviser. Please contact us at 
the address above, explaining what you would like us to review and including your reference 
number. If you are not satisfied with the internal review, you can appeal to the Information 
Commissioner. The contact details are: Information Commissioner's Office, Wycliffe House, 
Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9 5AF, Tel: 0303 123 1113 or see https://ico.org.uk/.   
 
Yours sincerely,
