EXPLANATORY NOTE

This note is not part of the order, but is intended to indicate its general effect.

This order comes into force on 1 January 1996.

Clauses 4to 9 apply to works that are literary, dramatic, musical, and artistic works, sound recordings, films, and typographical arrangements of published editions and that qualify for copyright either because the author is a citizen or subject of, or a person domiciled or resident in, or a body incorporated under the law of, a country specified in the First Schedule or because the works are first published in a country specified in the First Schedule. The clauses apply the provisions of the Copyright Act 1994 to such works. However, Part IX of the Act does not apply to them, and some of the infringement provisions apply to sound recordings only if the country specified in the First Schedule is also specified in the Second Schedule or if the sound recording is a film sound-track.

Clause 10 applies to broadcasts made on or after 1 January 1995 that qualify for copyright because the author is a citizen or subject of, or a person domiciled or resident in, or a body incorporated under the law of, a country specified in the Second Schedule or because the broadcast is made from a country specified in the Second Schedule. The clause applies the provisions of the Copyright Act 1994 to such broadcasts. However, Part IX of the Act does not apply to them, and tale Act's provision on copyright in repeated broadcasts is modified.

Clause 13 applies the provisions of Part IX of the Copyright Act 1994 to performances given in, or given by subjects or citizens of or persons resident or domiciled in, the countries specified in the Third Schedule to the order. Part IX deals with performers' rights in their performances.
