Question NW1626 to the Minister of Communications
20 June 2016 - NW1626
Van Damme, Ms PT to ask the Minister of Communications
Whether the SA Broadcasting Corporation owes any (a) actors and/or (b) musicians any royalties; if so, what is (i) the name of each person owed, (ii) the amount owed to each specified person and (iii) by when will the outstanding royalties be paid in each case?
Reply:
The payment of royalties to individual artists are managed by the collecting agencies/societies SAMRO, SAMPRA, AIRCO, IMPRA, RISA, CAPASSO. Therefore, the SABC does not pay Royalties to individual artists but to collecting Societies.
