    Licensee and occupier are not mutually exclusive terms. In fact almost all licensees are occupiers. Also, the OP does not mention anything about being a licensee. Pretty much the only thing we know about them is that they live there ("I recently moved back home"), and that makes them an occupier, and therefore liable

    A person in the situation of the o/p is not an occupier. He has no interest in the possession of the premises. The licence is to keep and have possession of a tv at the premises.
    The o/p no more keeps and has possession of a tv than a guest in a hotel has of the tv in their bedroom.

    Broadcasting Act:
    In this section “occupier” in relation to premises, means a person who as owner, tenant or otherwise is in occupation, whether solely, jointly or severally, of the premises.
    Are you seriously suggesting that someone who's primary residence is this premises is not an occupier?
