Dear Sir or Madam,
Thank you for your reply to FoI Act request ref: RFI20090631.
I am not satisfied that your grounds for invoking the Corporation's derogation under the Act are either relevant or valid, and on that basis request that you instigate an internal review of your decision.
Yours sincerely,
Mark McCubbin
Dear Mr McCubbin
The Information Commissioner's Office has agreed that the BBC is not
required to offer an internal review under the Act when the Act does not
apply to the information requested, as in this case.
You may appeal directly to the Information Commissioner's Office; the
details of how to do so are set out in the Appeal Rights section of the
letter. As noted in the letter, the Information Commissioner's Office has
already considered similar requests and decided that information about the
resources allocated to a particular story is not covered by the Act.
Yours sincerely
