His Majesty\u2019s Government believes that there are challenges regarding the sustainability of the current licence fee funding model, and is therefore conducting a review of it.<\/p>
As the terms of reference for that review note, the broadcasting sector is evolving rapidly, and members of the public have much more choice about how, when, and where they access content. The review will look at the sustainability of the BBC\u2019s current funding model, and assess how alternative models could help secure the corporation\u2019s long-term sustainability amid an evolving media landscape, increased competition, and changing audience behaviour, while reducing the burden on licence fee-payers.<\/p>

The most recent English Private Landlord Survey from 2021 found that almost half of landlords (48%) planned to keep the number of rental properties the same. The English Private Landlord Survey does not include prospective landlords who may be considering entering the market.<\/p>

The most frequently reported reasons for planning to decrease or sell their properties are set out in detailed analysis (attached) in the English Private Landlord Survey <\/a> report. The next publication is expected later in 2024.<\/p> <\/p> <\/p>
