Dear British Broadcasting Corporation,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of British Broadcasting Corporation's handling of my FOI request 'Section 29(3) Data Protection Act'.

You are a publicly funded organisation every request I have made has either been withheld or answered in such a way to avoid the actual question, you are hiding behind exemptions that I believe to be wrong and it is in the public interest to disclose this information to your licence payers are ultimatly it is them who pay for your existence!

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address:

Looks like the BBC really are doing things on the cheap now. An internal review conducted by a lowly IPC adviser?

[Name Removed] (Account suspended) left an annotation ()

Peter they just won't admit how they exist on hearsay and fear I have submitted a few requests tot hem and they refuse all on the grounds it may hamper future prosecution, what they really mean is people are gettign wise and they want to stem that knowledge for as long as possible, They can only get stuff off Sky with a court warrant and they wont tell me how many they succesfully got last year the reason is its NONE! I wont pay another penny them till they answer me!
