BIS consultation on costs
On 30 March 2010, BIS (the Department of Business Innovation and Skills) issued an Online infringement of copyright (initial obligations) cost-sharing: consultation document (PDF). The following summary from the BIS What's New page (plus perhaps the document, though it doesn't contain the word "Crown") is Crown Copyright.
- "Online infringement of copyright (initial obligations) cost-sharing: consultation document.
- URN: 10/915
- Publication date: 30 Mar 2010
- Responses by 25 May 2010. Consultation that sets out the Government's proposals for the sharing of costs relating to the initial obligations for addressing the problem of online infringement of copyright.

A PDF report Cost analysis of DEA implementation may also available from BIS (but interactive.bis.gov.uk is not responding at 22 May 2010). There is some commentary from JANET on the consultation.
