Review of Copyright (Infringing File Sharing) notice fee
[From Notice process to cover infringing file sharing | Ministry of Economic Development]
Review of the fee in the Copyright (Infringing File Sharing) Regulations
The Copyright (Infringing File Sharing) Regulations allow an IPAP to charge up to $25 for processing a rights owner notice as part of the three notice regime set out in sections 122A to U of the Act.
After a six month review of the fee, Cabinet decided that the fee should remain at $25. MBIE will continue to monitor the operation of the regime with a view to recommending whether further reviews of the fee are necessary.
