The Kenya Copyright Board (KECOBO) will be forced to reassess its approach as the dispute over royalty collection continues. This follows a Copyright Tribunal decision criticizing KECOBO's award of a license to a single Collective Management Organisation (CMO).
In its judgment, the tribunal stated that applications from the Kenya Association of Music Producers (KAMP), Performing and Audio-Visual Rights Society of Kenya (PAVRISK), and Music Copyright Society of Kenya (MCSK) have been remitted for reconsideration and determination. This is based on the legal requirements under the Copyright Act and Regulations, with all enabling legal provisions to be completed within twenty-one days of the judgment.
