Siobhain McDonagh

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport how many pensioners in Mitcham and Morden have received free television licences. [189356]

Estelle Morris

TV Licensing, who administer free television licences for people aged 75 or over as agents for the BBC, are not able to provide breakdowns by parliamentary constituency of the number of free licences issued. However, 2001 Census data for Parliamentary constituencies identifies that there are approximately 3,650 people aged 75 or over living in the Tamworth constituency.
