    "content": "To expound more on Clause 25, it mainly takes care of the many collective management organisations who have many artistes. Recently, a judgment was made in court about a collective management organisation called the Music Publishers Association of Kenya (MPAKE) and another one called the Copyright Music Society of Kenya, which was collecting revenue. The clause is purely to protect the artistes and prevent their revenue from being mishandled. The clause says that an audit can be made instantly by the Kenya Copyright Board. In the proposed new section, the Executive Director of the Kenya Copyright Board may inspect any collective management organisation at any time and recommend remedial action. That is in the same Clause 25. The artists or musicians out there are complaining that they are not receiving their money and we do not have remedial action to take a collective management organisation under statutory management. We need this. We need good guidelines for the Kenya Copyright Board and every collective management organisation."
