answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/04/2017 answer text <p>The legal requirements around the television licence are set out in the Communications Act 2003 and the Communications (Television Licensing) Regulations 2004/692. That Act provides that a television licence is needed to &quot;operate equipment capable of receiving a television programme service&quot;. This does not cover on demand services. However, whether live services that www.parliamentlive.tv provide qualify as a television programme service is a question of interpreting the Act and ultimately one for the courts to make.</p> answering member constituency West Suffolk answering member printed Matt Hancock question first answered 21/04/2017 09:20:48 answering member 4070 label Biography information for Matt Hancock
