BBC Licence Fee Payers (Voting Rights) Bill
[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to
This bill would give BBC licence fee payers voting rights in BBC decisions. Instead of the BBC being governed only by its board of directors, people who pay the £159 annual licence fee would get a democratic vote on how the organization operates, similar to how shareholders vote in companies.
Presented by Robert Halfon.
