(3A) The manufacturer must, subject to this regulation, maintain the amount, ascertained in accordance with the formula in subregulation (3), on deposit with the owner of the copyright.

A × B C

where: A is the total amount of the royalties paid or payable under the Act or the previous Act by the manufacturer to the owner in respect of records of musical works sold or supplied by the manufacturer during the period of one year (in this subregulation referred to as the relevant period) immediately preceding that day; and

(11)
Where the amount to be maintained on deposit under subregulation (9) of this regulation after the expiration of twenty-eight days after a prescribed day is not agreed between the manufacturer and the owner of the copyright, this regulation ceases to apply as between those persons upon the expiration of that period unless the manufacturer sold or supplied records of musical works, being records in respect of which royalties were paid or payable under the Act or the previous Act by him to the owner of the copyright, during at least three of the months of the year included in the period of one year immediately preceding that prescribed day.

Regulation 12

(13)

COMMONWEALTH OF AUSTRALIA

Copyright Regulations 1969

WARNING

Copyright owners are entitled to take legal action against persons who infringe their copyright. A reproduction of material that is protected by copyright may be a copyright infringement. Certain dealings with copyright will not constitute an infringement, including:

  • A reproduction that is a fair dealing under the Copyright Act 1968 (the Act), including a fair dealing for the purposes of research or study; or
  • A reproduction that is authorised by the copyright owner.

It is a fair dealing to make a reproduction for the purposes of research or study, of one or more articles on the same subject in a periodical publication, or, in the case of any other work, of a reasonable portion of a work.

In the case of a published work in hardcopy form that is not less than 10 pages and is not an artistic work, 10% of the number of pages, or one chapter, is a reasonable portion.

In the case of a published work in electronic form only, a reasonable portion is not more than, in the aggregate, 10% of the number of words in the work.

More extensive reproduction may constitute fair dealing. To determine whether it does, it is necessary to have regard to the criteria set out in subsection 40 (2) of the Act.

A court may impose penalties and award damages in relation to offences and infringements relating to copyright material.

Higher penalties may apply, and higher damages may be awarded, for offences and infringements involving the conversion of material into digital or electronic form.
