BBC

The complainant has requested any written representations from the BBC to Facebook objecting to disclosure of confidential user information to Cambridge Analytica. 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. She therefore upholds the BBC’s position and requires no remedial steps to be taken in this case.

FOI 1: Complaint not upheld
