What this law does

Drafted with AI from the cited sources under the direction of UnGovr staff. UnGovr holds editorial responsibility for this page.

Article 50 permitted using, in one's own work, excerpted parts of another's published work, or the complete published work of another person in the fields of photography, fine arts, industrial design, architecture, applied arts, or cartography, where this concerned criticism or commentary in the user's own work and accorded with the principles of good faith and fair dealing.

Article 57 required that reproduction by the press, communication to the public, or making available to the public of published articles on current economic, political, or religious topics, or of broadcast works, be permitted after payment of appropriate compensation, unless the rights holder had expressly reserved that use.

Law No. 08/L-205 repealed this Act on 12 October 2023; its own text is not available through the official gazette site, so it is not established whether either mechanism continues in the same form.
