BBC

The complainant has requested the number of complaints alleging bias received by the BBC relating to Laura Kuenssberg. The BBC explained the information was covered by the derogation and excluded from FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that this information was held by the BBC for the purposes of ‘journalism, art or literature’ and did not fall inside FOIA.  The Commissioner is also satisfied that the BBC is not subject to the convention of ‘purdah’ and does not hold information on this part of the request. She therefore upholds the BBC’s position and requires no remedial steps to be taken in this case.

FOI 1: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: fs50895113
