TV licence fee renewal drops 27% in first week of July
TV licence fee renewals dropped 25% in the first week of July according to new figures seen by Newstalk.
Figures released to Fine Gael TD Brendan Griffin show 3,428 fewer households renewed their licence fee compared with the same time last year as the controversy around payments to Ryan Tubridy emerged.
There was also a significant fall off in new licence fee sales, which were down almost 40% on the previous year.
June saw a more modest decline in total licence fee sales at just over 2%.
These reduced figures mean a total combined fall of almost €934,000 in licence fee revenue in June and the first week of July.
