I have added a new section concerning the dubious constitutionality of the practices of TV licence inspectors in the Republic of Ireland, based on the harassment of me by them arising out of my non possession of a TV (and therefore, non possession of a TV Licence).
As in the UK, TV licence inspectors in the Republic of Ireland cannot accept that you do not have or want a TV.
I wonder how long before the cowards of the establishment remove my changes rather than allow the truth to be told. Ewanduffy 20:37, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
TV licensing regulations as they currently stand raise many constitutional issues, in light of Ireland's status as a constitutional republic.
Removed this:
It's rubbish.
Coat hanger cannot exhibit anything but coats. I grant you could make a schools-debate sophistry around "dependent on the use of anything else", but without a courtcase to cite it's just bunkum. jnestorius( talk) 18:43, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
While it is a silly example, there have been a number of instances where such sillyness exists. For example if you have a broken TV in the house you have to pay. If you have an aerial or cable box on the house, even if it is not connected to anything you will have to pay the license. The law is so ambiguous it is extremely hard to not to pay the license. You get more requests to inspect premises if you haven't paid (legally). Of course needs citations before being added. -- Archeus ( talk) 12:00, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
the current system for tv licencing fails to provide a fair sevice for those who have holiday homes in the republic from other countries perhaps if there was a equitable and fair payment more people would be willing to contribute a proportion of the fee rather than avoid paying completely —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.154.88.217 ( talk) 10:24, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
It is stated a couple of times in the article that the level of license evasion in the Republic stands at around 15%. On what is this based ? Do the authorities just assume that every residential unit in the state is occupied and that no household can possibly live without television ? By that logic the rate of firearms license evasion must stand at around 97% ? 86.166.76.70 ( talk) 18:59, 23 February 2016 (UTC)
