PERFORMERS' SOUND RECORDING COPYRIGHT

EDM number 270 in 2005-06, proposed by Michael Connarty on 07/06/2005.

That this House notes that the copyright of performers and recordings made in the United Kingdom and the European Union is limited to 50 years, whereas performers' sound recording copyright continues for 95 years in the USA and for an average of 75 years in most non-EU countries; recognises that UK and EU recording artists are often denied income from the playing of their recordings during their lifetime; and calls on the Government to recognise this as denial of income due to living recording artists for their work and to alter UK and EU copyright laws to correct this injustice.

This motion has been signed by a total of 70 MPs.
