L. Paul Bremer, Coalition Provisional Authority

Summary

L. Paul Bremer, Coalition Provisional Authority Order 83: Amendment to the Copyright Law

In order to ensure that no hierarchy is established between rights of
authors, on the one hand, and rights of at least performers and producers of
phonograms, on the other hand, each Party shall establish that in cases where
authorization is needed from both the author of a work embodied in a phonogram
and a performer or producer owning rights in the phonogram, the need for the
authorization of the author does not cease to exist because the authorization of
the performer or producer is also required.
