Licences awarded in this way are required to make additional payments to the Treasury (via the ITC). Additional payments are in two parts. The first is a percentage set by the ITC, of qualifying revenue (PQR). The second part is the cash bid, which on renewal is set by the ITC. This is index-linked and payable annually. Note: The drop in total tender payment in 1999 reflects the renewal of some Channel 3 licences. The increase in PQR in this year reflects the policy decision that more emphasis be given to the PQR component of tender payments. Source: ITC
