The television licence (or broadcast receiving licence) is an
official record of payment required in many countries for
the reception of television broadcasts, or the possession of a
television set where some broadcasts are funded in full or
in part by the licence fee paid. The licence is sometimes
also required to own a radio or receive radio broadcasts. A
TV licence is therefore a hypothecated tax for the purpose
of funding public broadcasting, so allowing public
broadcasters to spread television programmes without, or
with only supplemental, funding from radio and television
