Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, pursuant to the Answer of 8 March 2016 to Question 29543, which areas of the BBC are exempt from the Freedom of Information Act 2000.
This question was answered on 14th March 2016
Schedule 1 of the Freedom of Information Act sets out that the BBC is subject to that act, in respect of information held for purposes other than those of journalism, art or literature. The BBC's website sets out how general exemptions to the Freedom of Information Act may apply to Freedom of Information requests to the BBC. You can find it here (http://www.bbc.co.uk/foi/).
