Government proposes concession amendments on copyright and AI amidst pressure from creatives

These amendments include commitments to publish a report on the recent AI and copyright consultation and to conduct an economic impact assessment.

While these steps acknowledge the concerns raised, they fall significantly short of the sector’s needs. The proposed measures do not introduce binding legal safeguards and largely reflect actions that would already be expected as part of the government’s standard process.

Nonetheless, the introduction of these concessions signals that the advocacy efforts of the PPA and broader creative community are gaining traction. We will continue to engage closely with MPs and officials as the Bill progresses through its final parliamentary stages.

Advocacy from across the sector remains strong. Last week, ABBA’s Björn Ulvaeus joined the PPA and fellow stakeholders in Parliament to highlight the importance of robust transparency and copyright protections for the future of the UK’s creative economy.
