Hi Sandra<br><br>As others on this list have pointed out it is unlikely that a community radio station, operating in the normal manner, would be subject to the Copyright & Related Rights Regulations.<br><br>The website of the Copyright Licensing Agency states:<br>
<br><div style="margin-left: 40px;">"If your organisation copies or distributes print or electronic extracts from books, journals or magazines without direct permission from the copyright owner then you are likely to be breaking the law".<br>
</div><br>And .goes on to say<br><br><div style="margin-left: 40px;">"If you are unsure whether you actually need a CLA licence then we recommend that you carry out our online risk assessment. It only takes two minutes to complete, is completely confidential and will give you an immediate assessment of whether you need a licence.<br>
<br>Click here to start the online risk assessment<br></div><br><div style="margin-left: 40px;"><a href="http://www.cla.co.uk/do_i_need_a_licence/assessment">http://www.cla.co.uk/do_i_need_a_licence/assessment</a><br></div>
<br>By completing the online assessment you can quickly assess whether you are likely to require a licence.<br><br>Hope that helps and best regards<br><br>Bill<br>-- <br>Community Media Association<br><a href="http://www.commedia.org.uk/" target="_blank">http://www.commedia.org.uk/</a><br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Dear Ms Martin,</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"></span> </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><b>RE: The Copyright &
Related Rights Regulations 2003 SI No 2498</b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><b></b> </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;" lang="EN-GB">I am writing further to my email dated 19/11/2010 regarding your
company’s current arrangements to ensure the legal copying and scanning of
copyright publications. I have not yet received a
response.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">I note that your business does
not hold a licence from CLA ensuring the lawful copying of copyright works from
published media. This is despite important changes to the law which took effect
in 2003 which prompted thousands of other UK businesses and PLCs to apply for a
licence. I enclose information concerning this issue and the CLA Business
Licence for your attention.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">The change in law means that,
with very few exceptions, any commercial organisation now wishing to copy or
reuse copyright articles and information from published magazines, journals,
periodicals or books (or cuttings from these editions) will require a CLA
licence or other statutory authority to ensure lawful copying. Many businesses
will have relied upon the limited “fair dealing” exceptions in the past when
making copies from published editions but this defense no longer applies.
</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">Typically copying might occur for
market research, communications, press office, marketing, PR or competitor
intelligence purposes. We also know from the surveys we conduct in businesses
that copies are made for case studies, business profiles, company announcements,
health and safety, director biographies, legal work, management information
etc.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">The enclosed Business Licence
permits photocopying from millions of magazines, journals, periodicals and
published editions in addition to scanning and email delivery. The cost of a
licence is based upon your business sector – SIC 92 Band B CLA Rate Card, and
the number of ‘Professional Employees (managers and above and all staff holding
a professional qualification) in your business.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">Please contact me on
<u>02074003142</u> or <u><a href="mailto:Hardeep.mudhar@cla.co.uk" target="_blank">Hardeep.mudhar@cla.co.uk</a></u> to
discuss your organisation's licence requirements. I attach a CLA licence
application form for your urgent attention<b>. Please <u>pay particular
attention to the section covering indemnity for past copying</u></b><u>. <b>It
is CLA policy to backdate the licence for a minimum of two
years.</b></u></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><b><u><span style="text-decoration: none;"> </span></u></b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">If you have any questions please
do not hesitate to contact me, or consult your own independent legal advisor as
soon as possible.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">I would appreciate your early
response in this matter.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"> </p>
