Sorry for getting back early but I just found where ITV/Channel 4 found the room to add E4 in Wales to D3/4:
It was as followed:
Look like D3&4 has only cut some channels Mb/s to add E4 in Wales on D3&4 so they CAN launch a UK Wide channel outside Wales if they wanted to.
Wales
PID null: 1.5Mb/s
DATAS & Audios: 4.8Mb/s
Channel 5: 1.8Mb/s
E4 +1: 1.2Mb/s
SC4: 1.5Mb/s
Channel 4 +1: 1.4Mb/s
E4: 1.5Mb/s
More4: 1.2Mb/s
Film4: 1.5Mb/s
Channel 4: 1.6Mb/s
ITV1 +1: 1.3Mb/s
ITV4: 1.7Mb/s
ITV2: 1.2Mb/s
ITV3: 1.1Mb/s
ITV1: 1.8Mb/s
London.
PID null: 0.5Mbs
DATAS & Audios: 4.3Mbs
Channel 5: 1.4Mbs
E4 +1: 1.6Mbs
Channel 4 +1: 1.4Mbs
E4: 1.9Mbs
More4: 1.5Mbs
Film4: 1.8Mbs
Channel 4: 1.8Mbs
ITV1 +1: 1.5Mbs
ITV4: 2.0Mbs
ITV2: 1.3Mbs
ITV3: 1.3Mbs
ITV1: 1.7Mbs
So to find the room to have E4 and it audio on D3&4 you will see from the list Mb/s has been cut from E4 +1, More4, Film4, Channel 4, ITV1 +1, ITV4, ITV2 and ITV3:
When you take away the list Mb/s in Wales it comes to 2.0Mb/s needed to broadcast E4 and it audio.
