Television licences are granted under Section 5 of the Wireless Telegraphy Act 1926, as amended. This Section allows for the grant of a licence to a person to keep and have possession of a television set in a specified place. A hotel or other licensed premises is required to have one television licence per premises even if that hotel or other licensed premises has one or more television sets.
