Act 10 of 1995 (as amended by Act 7 of 2000), Laws of Saint Lucia, ss. 3, 55-57 · Read the law's page

  • You may deal fairly with a work for criticism or review, or with a protected work other than a photograph for reporting current events, without infringing copyright, provided you give a sufficient acknowledgement; none is required where current events are reported by sound recording, film, broadcast or cable programme (section 56).
  • You may deal fairly with a work for research or private study (section 55).
  • Weigh fairness on the factors a court applies: the nature of the work, the extent and substantiality of the part used relative to the whole, and the effect of the use on the potential market for or commercial value of the work (section 57).
  • Expect no text-and-data-mining exception: the Act has none, and it creates no press-publisher neighbouring right or compelled-bargaining regime and does not address hyperlinking or framing.
