Copyright Act 1968

This section applies to a cinematograph film of which there is more than one principal screenwriter.

The screenwriter’s right of attribution of authorship in respect of the film is a right of each screenwriter to be identified as a screenwriter.

An act of false attribution of authorship in respect of the script or screenplay of the film infringes the right of each screenwriter not to have the authorship of the script or screenplay of the film falsely attributed.

The screenwriter’s right of integrity of authorship in respect of the film is a right of each screenwriter.

The consent of one screenwriter to any act or omission affecting his or her moral rights in respect of the film does not affect the moral rights of the other screenwriter or other screenwriters in respect of the film.
