Ministers have agreed the licence fee will stay in #place until at least 2027, when the BBC's Royal #Charter ends
Mr Sunak said he would not "speculate" on the long-term future of the licence fee itself, adding that it had been "secured" through to 2027, when the #current Royal #Charter governing the corporation ends
he said he felt it was important the BBC had the same leader for the #BBC's mid-term review in 2022 and the renewal of its #charter in 2027.
