Summary: By going down this route, we think that any comparison of the existing system against others can be properly examined to judge the full effects. In the absence of a rigorous testing of this proposal, it could have some perverse effects for example, a civil fixed penalty would need to be set at a sufficiently high level to deter evasion, and that could well end up hitting the less well off harder. As the BBC cannot turn off services for those who do not pay the licence fee, it needs an effective payment enforcement system. - bbc.co.uk
