Letter to the CZ Ministry of Culture on private copying cuts

On 4th March, EVA co-signed a letter addressed to the Czech Ministry of Culture to strongly oppose the recent proposal of amending the Copyright legislation, which would drastically cut private copying tariffs by 90%. Such a move would have serious implications for the Czech cultural and creative industries. The alert sent by Czech collective management organisations (including our member OOA-S) led to the joint response of five European organisations representing authors, performers, publishers and producers, asking for governmental support in ensuring private copying compensation, which is a consolidated concept in the EU acquis and cannot be reduced to a budgetary matter.
