"The aim of the Resale Rights Directive is to ensure that visual artists (or their estates) share in the economic success of their work, particularly when its true value is not recognised at the time of its first sale, and to harmonise Member States’ droit de suite legislation, some of which dates back to the 1920s. The Commission’s 2011 report found no clear link between implementation of this directive and the loss of EU art market share. It did find however that an administrative burden was placed on art-market professionals in some Member States. I therefore endorse its recommendation to establish an exchange of best practice and a stakeholders’ dialogue to try to minimise costs, and to produce a further report by 2014. But I believe we need to do more. For example, the Commission should give consideration to moving towards some form of mandatory collective management across the EU so as to guarantee the collection, administration and distribution of royalties. Consideration should also be given to reducing the threshold to EUR 1 000 – studies indicate that this move in Britain increased the number of benefiting artists by over 90%. The directive should be transposed through primary legislation."@en1
