HC Deb 13 June 2003 vol 406 c324W
Dr. Kumar

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if she will make a statement on the proposed implementation of the EU Copyright Directive. [115539]

Miss Melanie Johnson

Much of what is required to comply this Directive is already provided by existing UK copyright law. We are in the process of finalising those changes to law that are needed, in the light of the many views expressed during the public consultation which concluded last autumn.
