Landmark for RAUE LLP: Bundesrat confirms Ancillary Copyright Law for Press Publishers on the Internet
22 March 2013

The ancillary copyright law for press publishers has passed the Bundesrat, Germany’s Federal Assembly, and comes into force. After the Bundestag by a majority of the CDU, CSU and FDP parties had decided to incorporate an ancillary right for press publishers into the copyright law on 1 March 2012, this law was confirmed by the Bundesrat today. The proposal to transfer the proposed legislation in the Conciliation Committee ("Vermittlungsausschuss") was not followed by the majority of the Bundesrat. With this decision, a significant advance to strengthen the rights of press publishers on the Internet, accompanied by RAUE partners Prof. Jan Hegemann and Dr. Robert Heine, turns into law.
 

Publishers are now granted a reservation for authorization for the commercial use of their press articles through internet services such as search engines and news aggregators. So far, press publishers had no way of preventing the spread of their intellectual property on the Internet, causing significant losses in revenue otherwise reached through advertisements in print media.

The coalition agreement of 2009 had already approved an ancillary copyright law for press publishers which was confirmed on 4 March 2012 by the coalition committee and has now been implemented by legislature.
