Editorial Information
X2

The insertion of the new headings "Chapter 1 Introductory", "Chapter 2 Economic Rights", "Chapter 3 Moral Rights" and "Chapter 4 Qualification for Protection, Extent and Interpretation" in Pt. II on 1.2.2006 gives rise to a change in the structure of this legislation on SLD which breaks the continuity of historical versions of the existing provisions which are now brought under those new headings.

Crossheading inserted (1.12.1996) by S.I. 1996/2967, reg. 21(1) (with Pt. III)

F1X1191B Assignment and licences.

1

A performer’s property rights are transmissible by assignment, by testamentary disposition or by operation of law, as personal or moveable property.

2

An assignment or other transmission of a performer’s property rights may be partial, that is, limited so as to apply—

a

to one or more, but not all, of the things requiring the consent of the rights owner;

b

to part, but not the whole, of the period for which the rights are to subsist.

3

An assignment of a performer’s property rights is not effective unless it is in writing signed by or on behalf of the assignor.

4

A licence granted by the owner of a performer’s property rights is binding on every successor in title to his interest in the rights, except a purchaser in good faith for valuable consideration and without notice (actual or constructive) of the licence or a person deriving title from such a purchaser; and references in F2this Chapter to doing anything with, or without, the licence of the rights owner shall be construed accordingly.
