The cost of a colour television licence is to rise by £3 to £142.50 from April 1, the Department for Culture, Media and Sport has said. Skip related content Black and white only licences will also go up by £1 from £47 to £48, it was confirmed. The increase is being brought into effect by an order laid in the House of Commons. It follows the six-year BBC funding settlement which began in April 2007. The licence fee increase is set at 3% for the first two years of the settlement and 2% in years three, four and five. This year is year three. The six-year settlement is helping the BBC cope with a period of rapid change. It will help support the digital switchover in 2012, including funding and delivery of a help scheme to vulnerable people. The corporation is also in the process of moving significant production to the north west of England, which should bring an estimated £1.5 billion and 15,500 jobs to the area. |

£2/week isn't a lot if you earn a lot anyway but for some families I bet that £2 can sometimes be pretty vital |

i currently pay £11 a month while it may not sound much it is to me so i think that would be a good idea even a part pay scheme where you only pay a fraction if on low income

When I move out I am just not going to buy any TV's, I will just watch TV on my laptop. One of my TV's is a waste anyway as it is never on. The only one that is used is in my mums room.
