 Towards reform of the EU Copyright Directive | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:02:36

Reform of EU copyright law has been a hot topic for years and the European Parliament has long stressed the need to modernise regulation and adapt it to the digital era. While the European Commission is expected to present a proposal to amend EU copyright law in late 2015, Parliament will address the issue during its July plenary session, voting on a report from the Legal affairs Committee, which evaluates the current regulatory framework and recommends changes. As copyright reform is a sensitive subject in the EU, the plenary will have plenty to discuss, including inter alia the principle of territoriality of copyrights and the scope of exceptions and limitations to copyright protection.
