Dear FOI Enquiries,

There has clearly been some sort of serious misunderstanding in your response. The requested information does not fall within the realm of 'journalism, art or literature,' but of ensuring that the BBC serves all parts of our country equally, as it is mandated to in its remit. Please provide proof that the BBC does not discriminate against certain parts of the country by providing a breakdown of how much programming is created for each region.

Yours sincerely,

D Baker
