UK Implementation of European Copyright Directive

The UK Patent Office published its consultation paper on the 
implementation of the European Copyright Directive (2001/29/EC) on 7 
August 2002, thus opening its consultation period on the directive. 
Responses to this paper must be submitted to the Patent Office by 31 
October 2002. The paper presented below is a critique of the proposed 
implementation; it highlights flaws in the proposal, and makes 
recommendations for their solution. It is intended to be useful both to 
those writing responses to the Patent Office, and to those who merely 
want to know how the implementation of the directive is likely to affect 
them.
