Why it would move from COM4, where 4 other of its channels are, isn't obvious. It is the lowest rated, bearing in mind that there aren't separate C5+1 ratings on the BARB website and you'd expect that to actually be the lowest rating of the Freeview-available channels.
Look like ViacomCBS deal with COM4 to broadcast Channel 5 + 24/My 5/ 5Select is up and an other broadcaster (unkown at time of posting) has out bid ViacomCBS for that slot.

So with the info you have posted it look like 5Select will be move to BBC B/PSB3
