Free Tv Licences For All Pensioners Aged 70 And Over
EDM number 1750 in 2002-03, proposed by Ronnie Campbell on 15/10/2003.
That this House would welcome free TV licences for pensioners aged 70 years and over, reducing the current age band of 75 years; notes that figures show that providing free television licences for everyone aged 70 years or over would cost an estimated ú529 million a year, excluding administrative cost; and calls upon the Government to implement this change as soon as possible.
This motion has been signed by a total of 76 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
