The Authors’ Rights Office (Gabinete de Direito de Autor), which works under the aegis of the Ministry of Culture, put forward a proposal on modifications to authors’rights law (No. 108/IX), in order to implement the InfoSoc Directive (Dir. 2001/29/EC). After a few drafts and much debate, the law should be approved by Parliament, in view of the majority of seats held by the Government. If Parliament votes favourably, the proposal will then be considered by the President of the Republic, who will only refuse it if he deems it unconstitutional.
