Copyright Act 1994, Fair Dealing for Reporting Current Eventssince 3 lines

Copyright Act 1994 (NZ), No 143, s. 42 · Read the law's page

  • You may deal fairly with a work for the purpose of reporting current events by means of a sound recording, film or communication work without infringing copyright.
  • You may deal fairly with a work other than a photograph for the purpose of reporting current events by any other means, if the dealing is accompanied by a sufficient acknowledgement.
  • Do not treat either as a blanket exception for routine reproduction of headlines or extracts: the dealing must still be fair on the specific facts and directed at reporting current events, not merely republishing another outlet's content.
