Copyright Bill and Performance Protection Amendment Bill

The trade and industry portfolio committee is meeting today and tomorrow to discuss President Cyril Ramaphosa's reservations over parts of the Copyright Amendment Bill and the Performers’ Protection Amendment Bill. The president has highlighted six issues he says are constitutionally flawed and open to litigation. The two bills seek to amend the Copyright Act of 1978 and the Performers’ Protection Act of 1967. Spokesperson for the Copyright Coalition of South Africa, Chola Makgamathe, speaks on this.
