This initiative by the European Parliament’s Committee on Culture, Youth, Education, the Media and Sport is timely and warrants our support. As a matter of fact, it is hard to understand why the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) Treaties and Conventions dedicate an enormous range of rights and protection to musical authors, performers and producers and even to radio broadcasting organisations and do not do the same for audio-visual performers, who have no international rights other than a single payment for their work. This lack of protection abroad is due to the absence of any international harmonisation of international rights and it is regrettable that the WIPO Diplomatic Conference, held in December 2000, ended without a final agreement being reached on this matter. We have therefore agreed with the EP resolution not only with regard to the Commission providing information on the current state of WIPO negotiations, bearing in mind the informal meeting of June 2003, but also for the Commission to ‘take action to reach the adoption of an effective WIPO-Treaty in favour of audio-visual performers' rights’ and to encourage, more generally, the protection of performers’ rights."@en1
