Hello everyone, FYI regarding the Copyright Amendment bill we are trying
to get Freedom of Panorama included in.
*ANC Legal Research Group’s Workshop* on Copyright Amendment Bill on *Saturday
14 October 2017* from *9-11am* will be on *SAFM *and Channel 404 on DSTV.
Public can phone in with questions on 011-5358180 <011%20535%208180>. It
will be streamed live on SABCNEWS.COM. Dr. Owen Dean and Prof. Karijker
from Stellenbosch University’s IP Unit will be speaking and then 3 other
people after them.
*Legislation: Reworked Copyright Bill nears completion*
Publish date: 11 October 2017
Issue Number: 4324
Diary: Legalbrief Today
As work on redrafting the Copyright Amendment Bill gathers momentum, ‘more
and more questions’ are surfacing according to parliamentary legal adviser
Charmaine van der Merwe – who has nevertheless confirmed that ‘no policy
changes’ have been made, reports Pam Saxby for Legalbrief Policy Watch.
Where a policy decision is required, the provisions concerned have been
flagged in a version of the Bill Van der Merwe believes will rectify all
technical errors, inconsistencies and repetitive clauses identified during
May’s public hearings. Only then will matters of policy be tackled by the
National Assembly’s Trade and Industry Committee.
Briefing committee members yesterday, Van der Merwe said that – while
certain ‘phrases’ still need to be clarified – she is confident that the
Bill’s ‘B’ version will make the Act far easier to understand from a
technical perspective, once the amendments envisaged have been promulgated
and incorporated. Although no timeframe was given for the completion of the
reworked Bill and no discussion took place, committee chair Joan Fubbs
expressed hope that the remainder of the drafting process will not take
‘too much longer’.
