Written Answers
TV Licensing: Prosecutions
Asked by: Julian Knight (Independent - Solihull)
Monday 15th April 2024

Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many single justice procedure notices have been issued by the Television Licensing Authority in each year since 2015.

Answered by Mike Freer - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Ministry of Justice)

The requirement to hold, and pay for, a television license is set out in the Communications Act 2003 and the Communications (Television Licensing) Regulations 2004. Under the Communications Act 2003, the BBC is responsible for the collection and enforcement of the TV licensing system.

The BBC prosecutes most TV license evasion cases using the Single Justice Procedure (SJP). The SJP is a more proportionate way of dealing with straightforward, uncontested, summary-only non-imprisonable offences which almost exclusively result in a financial penalty.

The data we hold shows the number of defendants prosecuted by the Television Licensing Authority and dealt with via SJP for TV license evasion cases each year since 2015. This can be found in the table below:

Petition Rejected - 6 Signatures

Why is the BBC spending our TV license on programming for the American viewing audience? Why are they premiering Doctor Who at midnight UK time/7 p.m. Eastern Time? It’s our money. We want to see the results of it before the US!

This petition was rejected on 5th Apr 2024 for not being a Government or Parliamentary matter

Found: Remind the BBC that they work for British taxpayers and not the Americans who rightly also enjoy the

Abolish the TV license fee.

Petition Rejected - 6 Signatures

Scrapping the TV license fee and request that the BBC and any other TV services currently with government funding raise the money by alternate means.
