Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, how many black and white television licenses were issued by the Television Licensing Authority in each local authority area in 2023.

The BBC is responsible for the collection and enforcement of the licence fee, and the Government therefore does not hold information on this issue.
