The News Media Association has welcomed the government\u2019s indication that it is calling a halt to plans to introduce a new far reaching copyright exception which content creators feared would have a \u201csevere negative impact\u201d on UK rights holders such as news media publishers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The NMA has campaigned for the proposals around text and data mining to be abandoned including joining forces with organisations from across publishing sector<\/a> to write to then Business Secretary Kwasi Kwarteng to express profound alarm over the plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the letter, the Publishers Content Forum said: \u201cThe exception proposed will have a severe negative impact on UK rights holders and will create an unfairness that benefits those using content for purposes of TDM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe immediate consequences of the exception will be that, without the ability to license and receive payment for the use of their data and content, certain businesses will have no choice but to exit the UK market or apply paywalls where access to content is currently free.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Giving evidence to the Lords Communications and Digital Committee last week, DCMS Minister Julia Lopez MP said she was \u201cfairly confident\u201d the proposals would not go ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She said: \u201cI understand the IPO is extending its consultation on this. In the meantime, I am going to meet Minister Freeman to talk about some of these challenges. I understand the movement behind it. There are other technologies we need to be competitive in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis was in relation to AI in particular, where you want large data sets to analyse, to develop and understand trends and patterns. This committee and DCMS are very aware that IP is the lifeblood of many creative industry businesses, so we are not convinced of the value of this piece of work. I am fairly confident, in so far as I can say publicly, that this is not going to proceed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Oral Questions to the Culture Secretary this week, Sarah Olney MP said she was encouraged by the news the plans would not go ahead and asked the Minister to ensure any revised proposals to promote AI do not cause economic harm to the creative industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ms Lopez said IP was the \u201clifeblood\u201d of the creative industries she was \u201cnot convinced of the value\u201d of the TDM proposal and had met with the Minister with responsibility for IPO George Freeman to discuss the plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She added: \u201cI raised the concerns of the creative industries with the minister with responsibility, which he was sympathetic to those concerns. They are going to be going back to look at the consultation again, examining in greater detail some of those concerns that have already come out from the creative industries and see if the proposals can be revised.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
