[cma-l] PRS

[Ian Hickling]

I would suggest you proceed on these lines, and tell PRS in writing what you are doing:
If you are playing your own output on which you have already chosen to pay PRS then you should not pay again.
Is the reception area private property?
If so, playing music there is not "Public Performance" and no Royalty payment is required.
