Call for submissions: Copying photos and films for private use

The Government is reviewing the operation of two new copyright exceptions that permit ‘format shifting’. These exceptions are sections 47J and 110AA of the Copyright Act 1968 which permit photographs and cinematograph films to be reproduced in a different format for private use, subject to certain conditions.

Here is your chance to influence copyright law in Australia. The closing date for submissions is 29 February 2008. Further details about making submissions can be found in the issues paper.
