Introductory U.K.

1 (1) The provisions of this Schedule specify acts which may be done in relation to a performance or recording notwithstanding the rights conferred by [F1 this Chapter]; they relate only to the question of infringement of those rights and do not affect any other right or obligation restricting the doing of any of the specified acts.
