F o r e w o r d

by Dr. Rob Davies, Minister of Trade and Industry

In 2010 the Department of Trade and Industry (the DTI) commissioned a study through theWorld Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). The research study would indicate whetherthereareanybenefitscomingfromcopyright-basedindustries inSouthAfrica.The reasonforcommissioning these studieswas solelybasedon the fact thatSouthAfricawants toaccedeto treaties in theareaofcopyrightandtheSouthAfricanParliament indicatedthatbeforeanytreaty couldbeacceded to thecountryneeds toknowwhatbenefits come from these treatiesasbecomingasignatorytoatreatyentailsattractingobligationsandamendingthelegislation.

WiththefinalreportofthestudiesbeingsubmittedbyWIPO,Iamoftheviewthat:

ThestudiesgiveaclearindicationonwhetherornotthereisanybenefitforSouthAfricainjoiningornotjoininginternationaltreaties.

• ItisclearthatSouthAfricashouldimproveitsinternalcopyrightlegislationasitisoverthreedecades-old.

• ThemethodologyusedinconductingthestudyisnotdisputedbytheDTI.• TheabsenceofdatafromStatisticsSouthAfricaisproblematicespeciallywiththereliance

ondata fromprivatelymanageddatabasesmaybemisleadingasthisdatahasnotbeenproventobereliable.

• The treatment of Intellectual Property (IP) as a non-sector renders the recognition ofcopyrightasasub-sectorofIPnon-existentorsterile.

Notwithstandingtheabove:

• Thereport isaneyeopener. Itwillassistthecountry intreating IPasasectorandthiswillbejudgedbyitscontributiontotheeconomyaslaidoutinthereport.

• This is an indictment to the state to put systems in place that will assist in improving thecontributionofcopyright/IPtotheGrossDomesticProduct.

• StatisticsSouthAfrica,theSouthAfricanRevenueServicesandprivatelyownedassociationsthatcollectdataonIPshouldstriveforperfect/properdatagatheringinthissector.

• The report enables the state toallow innovation in tradeandeducationaswell asprofitmakingandthedevelopmentofincentiveschemesintheareaofcopyrighte.g.filmandmusicandtoallowlimitationsandexceptions.

Itismyviewthatwhenallisdone,therewillbeeconomicgrowth,jobcreationandrespectforIPasitcontributestothesocialgood.InregardstotheaboveitisinthebestinterestoftheDTItonotethefindingsofthestudy.

ThepublicationofthefindingsofthisstudyrepresentsaveryimportantmilestoneforSouthAfricaas it clearly indicates theareasweneed to improveon in termsoflegislationontheprotectionandenforcementofcopyright.

It is with great pleasure therefore that I present to you the findings of the commissioned study on“Benefits coming from Copyright-Based Industries”. TheDTI and relevant stakeholders willengageinaconsultativeprocessthatwillconsidertherecommendations.

The creation of new knowledge in a competitive economy is dependent to a significant extent on theprotectionoftheintellectualproperty(WIPO,20041).Copyrightlawshouldbeeffectiveinpromotingandencouragingthecreationofandinvestmentincreativeworks.

Anotherexampleof‘fairuses’ofcopyrightthatcancreateeconomicvaluewithoutdamagingtheinterestsofcopyrightowners is thefilmWest Side Story thatgrossed$43.7million ($39.9millionwhenadjustedforinflation).AlthoughthefilmmaybeconsideredareworkingofRomeo and Juliet, itssuccessindicatesthatworkswhichbuildonothers(andarenotnecessarilysubstitutesoftheoriginalwork)canbeextremelyvaluable. Indeed, it isnot thecase thatWest Side StoryhasmadeRomeo and Juliet lesspopularor lesscommerciallysuccessful”12.

The value of copyright has traditionally been observed both in social and cultural terms. Also, with thecontinuousrisingoftheservicessector,globalisationandthedevelopmentofknowledgeeconomy,theneedforacopyrightlawandinfrastructureunderpinninganumberofindustrieshasbeenmoreimperativethanever.

CopyrightinSouthAfricaislegislatedbytheCopyrightActNo.98of197813anditsamendments.

Furthermore, the need to protect, support and promote the copyright-based industries has been re-emphasisedinthestrategicplanfor“CulturalIndustries”14.

The“Cultural Industries” identifiedbytheDepartmentofArts,Culture,ScienceandTechnology(DACST)includesthemusicindustry,thecraftindustry,thepublishingindustryandthefilmandtelevisionindustry(themostessentialcorecopyright-basedindustries).“TheirselectionwasbasedonanumberofcriteriaincludingtherecognitionthatthesesectorswereidentifiableindustriesinSouthAfrica,arepotentiallyinternationallycompetitiveandhavethepotentialtocreateemploymentandofferopportunitiesforruralandurbanjobcreation”15.

In this report we follow the WIPO methodology for the estimation of the contribution of the copyrightindustriesintheSouthAfricaneconomy.AccordingtoWIPO,copyright-basedindustriesarethoseengagedin creation, production and manufacturing, performance, broadcast, communication and exhibition ordistributionandsalesofworksandotherprotectedsubjectmatter37.TheWIPOGuidealsorecognisesthattheeconomicimpactcanberelatedtoboth“core”copyright-basedindustriesand“non-core”industries.Thesedifferentcategoriesproposedaredependentoncopyrightatdifferentlevels,representedintheWIPOGuidebythecopyright factors.

In our study, we deal with “core” and “non-core” industries separately by measuring their value-addedcontributionaswellasemploymentandtradelevels.Inthissection,theoverallmethodology,datacollectionissuesandselectionofcopyrightfactorsaredescribedindepth.

TheWIPOGuidecategorisesthecopyright-basedindustriesintofourmaincategoriesbasedontheirtypeofassociationtocopyright.Theyare:

• core copyright industries: industries wholly engaged in creation, production and manufacturing ofperformance, broadcast, communication and exhibition or distribution and sales of works and otherprotectedsubjectmatter

• interdependent copyright industries:industriesengagedinproduction,manufactureandsaleofequipmentwhosefunction iswhollyorprimarily tofacilitatethecreation,productionoruseofworksandotherprotectedsubjectmatter

• partial copyright industries: industries in which a portion of the activities is related to works and otherprotected subject matter and may involve creation, production and manufacturing, performance,broadcast,communicationandexhibitionordistributionandsales

• non-dedicated support industries: industries in which a portion of the activities is related to facilitating,broadcast,communication,distributionorsalesofworksorotherprotectedsubjectmatterandwhoseactivitieshavenotbeenincludedinthecorecopyrightindustries.

5.2 comparison with other Economic SectorsTo put in context the findings of the analysis on the contribution of the copyright-based industries, wecompare their contribution to the total economy with that of other major sectors of the South Africaneconomy.

With regards tovalue-added,figure6 shows that thecopyright sectorhas contributedmore (4.11%) tothetotaleconomyin2008than‘agriculture’ (2.51%)and‘food,beveragesandtobacco’(3.09%).SouthAfrica’seconomy,however,isbasedmainlyonits‘manufacturing’and‘mining’sectors.Hence,asexpected,thecopyrightsectorcontributedsignificantlylessthanthe‘manufacturing’(18.36%)and‘mining’(6.15%)sectors.

Thesumofthebalancesincopyrightservicesandinmerchandisetradeshowsthetotaleffectofcopyrightinthecountry’simportsandexports.ItbecomesapparentthatthesizeofdeficitsbothinthetradeandthebalanceofpaymentsinSouthAfricaaremuchsmallerthanthoseinothercountriesandhencetheissueofdeficitsdoesnotwarrantfurtherdiscussion.

6.2 recommendationsDuring the process of our investigation a number of questions were raised which lead to a number ofrecommendations.

From a methodological prospective WIPO’s guidelines49 identify the industries affected by copyright andsuggestcertaincopyrightcoefficients.Thecoefficients reflect thecopyrightcomponentswithinparticularindustriesandhencethepercentageofvalue-addedthatshouldbeallocatedtocopyrightcontribution.Theguidestates:“Forarchitecture,forexample,variousstudiestakebetween65%and75%ofthearchitecturalindustry as having a copyright component”50. Further the guide suggests that “an approximate averageof the contribution of the non-core groups, based on the results from the past studies, would indicatethat this contribution is around 30% of the entire contribution of all copyright-based industries”51. Theguideconcludesthat“theprocedureofestablishingtheweightingswouldcombineseveralapproachesortechniques…”52.AsthecopyrightcoefficientsmaychangeovertimeandmaydifferfromcountrytocountrywesuggestthatWIPOconsidersdevelopingguidelinesfortheestimationofcopyrightcoefficients.

WIPO’sinterestinpromotingthecopyrightindustriesiscurrentlyfocusedinthemeasurementoftherelevantimpact on the economy. However, the impact of the copyright-based industries is dependent mainly onthestructureoftheeconomyandtheimportance/incentivesprovidedforthedevelopmentandgrowthoftherelevantclusters.WesuggestthatWIPOshouldidentifyinternationalbestpracticeinthepromotionofcopyright-basedindustriesanddisseminatetheinformationtomemberstates.
