The European Parliament’s committe for legal affaires (JURI) adopted the “Medina Report” on the harmonization of certain aspects of copyright and related rights in the information society on January 20th [see the – still non-official – consolidated version of the report including the JURI amendments, available on La Quadrature du Net’s website and here].
This report, drafted by Spanish socialist MEP Manuel Medina Ortega (check his profile on the “political memory” webpage from La Quadrature du Net), with the help of MEPs Janelly Fourtou and Jacques Toubon, is meant to be a preliminary report on the application of Directive 2001/29/EC on the harmonisation of certain aspects of copyright and related rights in the information society.
