Computer Owners May Soon Have To Pay TV Licence
You may soon have to pay a TV licence fee, if you own a computer.
The move is part of plans to widen the net for those who have to pay the €160 Euro each year.
Communications Minister, Denis Naughten, wants to make anyone with a computer screen over 11 inches pay the full TV licence fee.
The Irish Independent claims an extra €5 million a year could be raised by extending the fee to include those using laptops, PCs and tablets.
