Effect of declaration of collecting society
135ZZZX Effect of declaration of collecting society
If:
as a result of the declaration of one or more collecting societies, there is a society for all relevant copyright owners; and
a notice under section 135ZZZV was in force immediately before the day on which the declaration came into force;
then, on and after that day, the notice ceases to have effect as such a notice, but is taken, for the purposes of this Part, to be a remuneration notice that:
was given by the relevant satellite BSA licensee to the collecting society, or to each of the collecting societies, as the case may be; and
came into force on the same day as the notice came into force.
If:
one or more collecting societies are declared for one or more, but not for all, classes of relevant copyright owners; and
a notice was in force immediately before the day on which the declaration came into force;
then, on and after that day:
the notice ceases to have effect as such a notice in relation to the relevant copyright owners in the class or classes of copyright owners for whom a collecting society is declared, but is taken, for the purposes of this Part, to be a remuneration notice that:
was given by the relevant satellite BSA licensee to the collecting society or to each of the collecting societies, as the case may be; and
came into force on the same day as the notice came into force; and
the notice continues to have effect as such a notice in relation to all other relevant copyright owners.
When a notice is, under this section, taken to be a remuneration notice, the relevant satellite BSA licensee must cause copies of all records made under section 135ZZZL on or after the day on which the notice is taken to have come into force to be sent to the relevant collecting society within 21 days after the declaration of the collecting society.
