with
Rosemary Jay, Partner
at Pinsent Masons - courses in London
This Workshop, led by
Rosemary Jay, of Pinsent Masons, is designed to support those
who are dealing with the Re-use of Public Sector Information
Regulations 2005. The topics covered in this session
include:
- what does re-use mean?
- formalities of making an
application
- the relationship with Freedom of
Information, Environmental Information and other access
rights
- when can an authority license
re-use and when can the user do so without permission under
the Intellectual Property exemptions?
- the relevant intellectual property
rights - database rights, copyrights
- what are the limits of the
Intellectual Property exemptions?
- when is material exempt from
re-use?
- what are re-use licenses, what
should they cover?
- charging regimes - trading funds
and others
The session will include
case studies and worked examples. There will be ample
opportunity for discussion, questions and debate.
Delegates are encouraged to bring queries to this interactive
session.
The Workshop will
help participants to:
- identify what each organisation
needs to do to handle applications for re-use
- understand the interface with other
access regimes
- review the options for licensing
and appreciate why licenses should be used and how they work
- understand the complaints mechanism
and how to deal with cases if things go wrong
- anticipate what types of
information may be most useful and when requests can be
refused
The Workshop leader
is Rosemary Jay, Partner
at Pinsent Masons.
