Summary/Abstract: The conflict between the protection of authors’ work and their right to financial benefits on the one hand and a demand for broad access to cultural goods on the other requires the existence of regulations concerning fair use rules (both personal and public).The bill, however, raises doubts about the compatibility with Article 64 paragraph 1, in conjunction with Article 31 paragraph 3, of the Constitution. The authors consider the bill to be the wrong way to implement Directive 2001/29/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2001 on the harmonization of certain aspects of copyright and related rights in the information society. There is doubt as to whether the bill is consistent with international conventions.
