Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order brings into force on 21st December 1989 variations to the Public Lending Right Scheme 1982.

The Appendix sets out the variations. The principal changes are as follows.

The requirement for authors (other than editors, translators or compilers) to make a joint application for registration of Public Lending Right in respect of a book with more than one author is removed. A separate application may be made by such authors for registration of Public Lending Right or for registration of an eligible author’s share provided that there is an agreement or arrangement relating to the share in the Right which each person who is party to the agreement or arrangement may register.

All interests registered by the personal representatives of the same author shall be taken into account for the purpose of calculating the sum due in respect of Public Lending Right to the registered owner of a registered interest.

The sum attributable to each qualifying loan for the purpose of calculating the amount payable in respect of loans of a particular book is decreased from 1.45p to 1.39p.
