(This note is not part of the Order)
The Independent Television Commission ("the ITC") has the power, under section 102(1) of the Broadcasting Act 1996, to require a licence holder to pay a financial penalty for breach of section 101(1) of that Act (restriction on televising of listed events).

The Order prescribes one as that multiplier.
