Proceeding contribution from Lord Lucas (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 18 January 2010. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Digital Economy Bill [HL].
Digital Economy Bill [HL]
Which I suspect is my fault. I am sorry for leaving the Minister with that conundrum. I entirely accept what he said, although I am puzzled—perhaps I misunderstood him—that he is resisting the first amendment in the group, that the copyright owner should be "named". It is an important part of the allegation of trespass that one should know that the person alleging the trespass owns the copyright that they claim you have infringed. To be told that you have trespassed on copyright, but not to be told whose copyright, it is leaves you with an incomplete ability to defend yourself. I am therefore surprised that the noble Lord thinks that my first amendment should be resisted. Perhaps I can leave him to think more on that and, for the moment, I beg leave to withdraw it. Amendment 60 withdrawn. Amendments 61 to 63 not moved. Amendment 64 Moved by
