These Regulations necessitated a review of Crown copyright processes and the exceptions process was discontinued.</p><p> </p><p>Complaints about charges for re-use by museums and galleries may be referred to the Information Commissioner for a binding decision.</p> answering member printed Lord Ashton of Hyde question first answered 12/11/2018 11:34:37 answering member 4247 label Biography information for Lord Ashton of Hyde
