Screenrights, the copyright collective administering statutory education licences, submitted a position paper to Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus in August 2024 proposing expansion of the statutory education licence under the Copyright Act. The correspondence included a letter from Screenrights Chair Kim Dalton and a detailed position paper outlining the proposal, which had been developed following copyright roundtables and stakeholder consultation as requested by the Attorney's office. AGD staff (including Alice Linacre) were copied on internal forwarding of these materials, with Screenrights' CEO James Dickinson proposing a meeting to discuss the report. Portions of names and contact details were redacted under section 22(1) (personal privacy). The documents show the early stages of copyright policy consultation regarding education sector access to screen content licensing arrangements.
