• 7 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I support. view
• 24 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you. I am standing on a point of information. The KCB would have had to remove the clause calling for registration of copyright owners. We can then refer to Clause 9, which provides for voluntary registration. I doubt that the reason was because there were too many copyright works. It was because it was calling for mandatory registration of copyright works. Copyright works are considered automatic rights. Copyright ownership is automatically conferred on the owner. One needs not register it. This section is being deleted so that voluntary registration can be introduced later on. It is not because there ... view
• 24 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I want to seek clarification from the Chair on Clause 11 because the Memoranda of Objects and Reasons says that the Bill amends the Act by inserting a new Section 26 A to D to provide for an artist resale right for visual rights. Is this the position or was it just grammatical errors? The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 24 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: I think Hon. Osotsi has put it correctly. Technical refers to a specific topic whereas technological is for the protection of copyright online of using technological means. view
• 24 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I am seeking clarity from the Chair again. view
• 24 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: I appreciate and understand the fact that a member of an CMO will be eligible for election as the director if he holds a post-secondary qualification which is recognised in Kenya. I appreciate that the membership of CMOs are generally artists. I am concerned that you have not defined the education requirements for the CEO of a CMO. If you look at the Copyright Board, the CEO has to be an advocate of not less than five years standing. The CMOs deal with hundreds of millions of shillings for and on behalf of their members. So, I will appreciate an ... view
• 24 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: management organisation? Is it in the Act? Is it defined or what is defined is the chief executive officer of the Kenya Copyright Board? view
• 24 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. Clause 25 says that the chief executive officer of a collective management organisation shall hold office and defines the term. The Member has defined the role of the chief executive officer of the board, which is the oversight body of the collective management organisation. My question is that you have only defined the term the chief executive officer of the collective management organisation and have not defined the qualifications. Collective management organisations are highly technical bodies. Whereas I appreciate the fact that a member of the board of directors is a post-secondary one, what ... view
• 24 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: That is the clarification I am seeking. view
• 24 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: I am not a Member of the Committee. I want to echo the sentiments of Hon. Millie Odhiambo. I do not want us to be the Parliament where the blame will be put upon as having allowed anybody and everybody to manage the money and the royalties of artists in this country. These artists are not just musicians. There are various areas of CMOs. It is a deep concern where you say that anyone with secondary qualification qualifies. I have no problem with you being an elected representative, but to say that it can be anybody, yet in the memorandum ... view
