HC Deb 23 November 1994 vol 250 c180W
Mr. Foulkes

To ask the Secretary of State for National Heritage what action he is taking to ensure that residents in the Channel islands pay the television licence fee.

Mr. Dorrell

Under section 180 of the Broadcasting Act 1990, responsibility for the administration of the television licensing system passed to the BBC with effect from 1 April 1991. The day-to-day administration and enforcement of the licensing regulations in the Channel islands is carried out actively by the island post offices under contract to the BBC.
