A consensus view

Our main purpose is to encourage our members to review and debate proposals for legislative change in the field of copyright and, where possible, to develop a consensus view. Read our policy priorities for a world-leading copyright regime.

We respond to proposals or consultations initiated by the British Government, the European Commission or Parliament and at International level by the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO). However, we also respond to papers produced by other interest groups and are pro-active in making recommendations and urging action on Government and other policymakers. Discussions take place either in the full Council or in delegated Working Groups. You can search our archive of policy documents by year or by keyword below.
