Original Note:
The BBC is principally funded through a licence fee paid by UK households; the amount is set by the government in a periodic 'licence fee settlement'. As with any government imposed tax, it’s government mandated. UK government is currently reviewing this arrangement. https://lordslibrary.parliament.uk/future-funding-of-the-bbc-lords-committee-report/
