I'd say they can probably always backtrack, but they cannot blame you
for taking this answer as face value and start using OOC maps. It is
just five years difference anyway, so if
I doubt its binding. Strictly speaking FOI requests are for information not
opinions, but its something no-one seems to pay much attention to. There
might be an estoppel/legitimate expectation argument but I doubt it.
This is off the top of my head of course.

To legal-talk,
I was trying to think of a way to clarify the situation on copyright
expiry of OS maps. One interpretation is the 50 years copyright starts
when the map was last updated. Another is the copyright clock starts on
the year of the copyright notice. To get an answer, what better way
