Actions for Infringement of Moral Rights

195AZ. If a person infringes any of the moral rights of an author in respect of a work, the infringement is not an offence but the author or a person representing the author may bring an action in respect of the infringement, subject to any co-authorship agreement in force under section 195AN to which the author is a party.

Remedies for Infringements of Moral Rights

195AZA.-(1) Subject to section 203, the relief that a court may grant in an action for an infringement of any of an author's moral rights in respect of a work includes any one or more of the following:

(b) damages for loss resulting from the infringement;

(c) a declaration that a moral right of the author has been infringed;

(d) an order that the defendant make a public apology for the infringement;

(e) an order that any false attribution of authorship, or derogatory treatment, of the work be removed or reversed.

(2) In exercising its discretion as to the appropriate relief to be granted, the court may take into account any of the following:

(a) whether the defendant was aware, or ought reasonably to have been aware, of the author's moral rights;

(c) the number, and categories, of people who have seen or heard the work;

(f) any cost or difficulty in removing or reversing any false attribution of authorship, or derogatory treatment, of the work.

(3) In deciding whether or not to grant an injunction under subsection (1), the court must consider whether the parties have made any attempt to negotiate a settlement of the action and whether it should adjourn the hearing or further hearing of the action for the purpose of giving the parties an appropriate opportunity to negotiate a settlement, whether through a process of mediation or otherwise.

(6) If, in respect of an act done after the death of an author of a work, damages are recovered under this section by the legal personal representative of the author, those damages devolve as if they formed part of the author's estate and as if the right of action in respect of the doing of the act had subsisted, and had been vested in the author, immediately before his or her death.
