Brief

Here is a summary of the given text:

The UK government has received feedback on implementing the Beijing Treaty, which sets out provisions for moral and economic rights for performers of audiovisual performances. Most respondents welcomed the government's intention, but views varied on how to implement the Treaty. Stakeholders, including performers, unions, and collector management organizations, advocated for stronger economic rights and unwaivable rights to equitable remuneration. Producers and broadcasters argued that collective bargaining agreements already provide fair remuneration for performers. The government must now consider the views and decide on its preferred approach. Additionally, the implementation of the Treaty would not pose a risk to freedom of expression, as it would provide the same moral rights as other creators and performers. The document also discusses the transfer of rights, allowing flexibility in applying presumptions in UK law or providing a right to receive royalties or equitable remuneration.
