Sky's are published.
FOI request to the BBC showed they don't pay VM anything.

Sadly there's not really a way to do that. It's easy to find out what the BBC pay who because the FOI act covers pretty much everything they do. For other companies it's going to be neigh on impossible due to it being classed as business sensitive information.

It does make me think though that maybe VM should operate more like Sky. Charge flat rates for channels to be on the EPG and appropriate platform contribution costs, and as long as they're competitive with Sky's then that should mean there's no reason why a channel shouldn't launch on VM?
