Wijziging van de Wet op de naburige rechten in verband met de omzetting van Richtlijn 2011/77/EU van het Europees Parlement en de Europese Raad van 27 september 2011 tot wijziging van de Richtlijn 2006/116/EG betreffende de beschermingstermijn van het auteursrecht en bepaalde naburige rechten

This report proposes changes to Dutch law to align with an EU directive extending copyright and neighbouring rights protection terms. It aims to harmonize protection periods across the EU, ensuring fair compensation for creators and performers. The changes will affect artists, musicians, and their heirs, extending the duration of their rights. This impacts the availability of works in the public domain and the licensing of copyrighted material.
