Tomorrow in the House of Commons, I will be presenting my Bill to democratise the Licence Fee. I have ten minutes to propose my Bill, which will then be given a named date for consideration:
The Bill is as follows:
Ten minute Rule Motion: Robert Halfon: BBC Licence Fee Payers (Voting Rights): That leave be given to bring in a Bill to require the BBC to enable licence fee payers to vote on its strategic direction and aspects of senior salaries and programming, including referenda on particular issues; to provide for election of the BBC Trust and the non-executive members of the BBC Executive Board by licence fee payers; to make other provision relating to the governance of the BBC; and for connected purposes.
You can read more HERE or listen to the Radio HERE click on after 26.5 minutes (I was on BBC Today in Parliament last week, explaining the programme).
