About this statute

This section gives the Act’s short title and says it must be read together with the principal Copyright and Performance Rights Act (Cap. 406). This section updates the Act’s definitions of “court,” “Committee,” and “synchronise.” This section amends the principal Act by repealing section 28 and replacing it with a new section. This section makes a range of copyright-related acts offences and sets fines, prison terms, and court powers to deal with infringing items. Section 33 of the principal Act is amended: a rank reference is removed, section 28 is added to one reference, and a time period is changed from 48 hours to 7 days.
