        BBC extends partnership with Capita for an additional two years 
 
The BBC has agreed to extend its existing TV licence collections partnership 
with Capita for a further two years. This extends the current eight-year 
contract to June 2022. 
 
Over the remaining term of the contract, both parties will continue to work 
closely together to further improve revenue collection rates, reduce evasion 
and decrease the cost of collection for the BBC. Capita will introduce further 
enhancement to its insight and analytical capability, and introduce new 
technologies to enhance the service experience for the Licence Fee payer. 
 
Andy Parker, Chief Executive of Capita plc, said: "This contract extension 
reflects the success of the partnership, which has run since Capita first took 
over the administration of TV Licensing in 2002, signing a further contract in 
2011. Capita now collects GBP3.7bn in licence fees on behalf of the BBC. We have 
made efficiencies over the contract and collection costs are now less than 3p 
in every pound. We look forward to continuing to work with the BBC over the 
next five years."
