This is the original version (as it was originally enacted).
36(1)The 1911 Act shall remain in force as part of the law of any dependent territory in which it was in force immediately before commencement until—
(a)the new copyright provisions come into force in that territory by virtue of an Order under section 157 of this Act (power to extend new copyright provisions), or
(b)in the case of any of the Channel Islands, the Act is repealed by Order under sub-paragraph (3) below.
(2)An Order in Council in force immediately before commencement which extends to any dependent territory any provisions of the 1956 Act shall remain in force as part of the law of that territory until—
(a)the new copyright provisions come into force in that territory by virtue of an Order under section 157 of this Act (power to extend new copyright provisions), or
(b)in the case of the Isle of Man, the Order is revoked by Order under sub-paragraph (3) below;
and while it remains in force such an Order may be varied under the provisions of the 1956 Act under which it was made.
(3)If it appears to Her Majesty that provision with respect to copyright has been made in the law of any of the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man otherwise than by extending the provisions of Part I of this Act, Her Majesty may by Order in Council repeal the 1911 Act as it has effect as part of the law of that territory or, as the case may be, revoke the Order extending the 1956 Act there.
(4)A dependent territory in which the 1911 or 1956 Act remains in force shall be treated, in the law of the countries to which Part I extends, as a country to which that Part extends; and those countries shall be treated in the law of such a territory as countries to which the 1911 Act or, as the case may be, the 1956 Act extends.
(5)If a country in which the 1911 or 1956 Act is in force ceases to be a colony of the United Kingdom, section 158 of this Act (consequences of country ceasing to be colony) applies with the substitution for the reference in subsection (3)(b) to the provisions of Part I of this Act of a reference to the provisions of the 1911 or 1956 Act, as the case may be.
(6)In this paragraph “dependent territory” means any of the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man or any colony.
37(1)This paragraph applies to a country which immediately before commencement was not a dependent territory within the meaning of paragraph 36 above but—
(a)was a country to which the 1956 Act extended, or
(b)was treated as such a country by virtue of paragraph 39(2) of Schedule 7 to that Act (countries to which the 1911 Act extended or was treated as extending);
and Her Majesty may by Order in Council conclusively declare for the purposes of this paragraph whether a country was such a country or was so treated.
(2)A country to which this paragraph applies shall be treated as a country to which Part I extends for the purposes of sections 154 to 156 (qualification for copyright protection) until—
(a)an Order in Council is made in respect of that country under section 159 (application of Part I to countries to which it does not extend), or
(b)an Order in Council is made declaring that it shall cease to be so treated by reason of the fact that the provisions of the 1956 Act or, as the case may be, the 1911 Act, which extended there as part of the law of that country have been repealed or amended.
(3)A statutory instrument containing an Order in Council under this paragraph shall be subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament.
