Third party data sourced and used by TV Licensing (2)
Dear British Broadcasting Corporation,
Thank you for RFI20201548. It is not clear who now creates and implements official TV Licensing policy in this matter. Is it Proximity or is it the BBC? Is the BBC now denying it has total responsibility in ALL matters concerning the administration and enforcement of the TV licence.
From RFI20201548
"BBC in respect of its TV Licensing activities, the arrangements governing the sourcing and supply of this data are exclusively between Proximity and the suppliers."
You failed in substance to answer this part:
"BBC policy documents setting out in detail the implementation of the sourcing and exploitation of third party data used by TV Licensing™"
This is a Freedom of Information request lodged under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 for full disclosure and publication of the policy documents created by the BBC to which Proximity refer to in sourcing and exploiting of third party data used by TV Licensing.
Many thanks
Yours faithfully,
Mr Hillas

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 'Third party data sourced and used by TV Licensing (2)'.
"Marketing and printing services are contracted to RAPP Limited (formerly Proximity London Limited). The BBC is a public authority in respect of its television licensing functions and retains overall responsibility."
"RAPP formerly Proximity" are doing a lot more than just "marketing and printing" for and on behalf of the BBC. The BBC TV licence is address based and track and trace activities on named individuals as they relocate from address to address is being undertaken by RAPP on behalf of a BBC with overall responsibility.
I asked for a full disclosure and publication of the origination and implementation of the policy. BBC privacy policy does not cover the constant surveillance of named individuals nor the track and trace activities involved being carried out by RAPP, a TV Licensing contractor with "marketing and printing" remits.
A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/t...
Yours faithfully,
Mr I Hillas
