Objetivos clave de la medida:

The new copyright act is intended to be modern and flexible legislation that enables authors and other right holders to enforce their rights more effectively within the framework laid down by European and international law.

The act responds to the need to adapt the current legal framework to changes resulting from the development of the information society, especially the use of works and other subject matter on the internet. There was a need in practice for legislation taking into account requirements related to the protection and use of copyright works and subject matter on the internet, which would allow authors and other right holders to exercise their rights effectively while at the same time allowing users to have access to protected content under appropriate conditions. The new act is intended to be a foundation for the spreading of culture, education and research and for the development of creative industries and the internet economy and for support of creativity. Another aim of the act is to indirectly contribute to increased competitiveness in Slovakia through the creation of a vital framework for supporting innovation and investment in creative industries with high added value.
