Copyright –Commission launches public consultation
The public consultation on
copyright launched today invites stakeholders to share their views on
territoriality in the single market, harmonisation, limitations and exceptions
to copyright in the digital age; fragmentation of the EU copyright market; and
how to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of enforcement while
underpinning its legitimacy in the wider context of copyright reform. Internal
Market and Services Commissioner Michel Barnier said: "My vision of
copyright is of a modern and effective tool that supports creation and
innovation, enables access to quality content, including across borders,
encourages investment and strengthens cultural diversity. Our EU copyright
policy must keep up with the times." The consultation is open until 5
February 2014.
