Dear FOI Enquiries,
Thank you for your response.
The information I am seeking is for academic purposes. Under these grounds, would my request be accepted?
Yours sincerely,
Tarik Ata
Dear Tarik Ata,
Thank you for your email. Please be advised that the FOI Act does not
provide that requests made for academic purposes should be considered in a
different manner from any other request. Whilst the BBC does not offer an
internal review when the information requested is not covered by the Act,
if you disagree with our decision you can appeal to the Information
Commissioner. Contact details are: Information Commissioner's Office,
Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9 5AF, tel: 0303 123
1113 or see [1]http://www.ico.org.uk
Please note that should the Information Commissioner’s Office decide that
the Act does cover this information, exemptions under the Act might then
apply.
Yours sincerely,
Information Rights, BBC Legal
