May 17, 2013

NEW YORK, CMC - The Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR), has placed Barbados and Trinidad and Tobago on a watch list of countries that have failed to make the adequate copyright payments for U.S. musical compositions aired in the broadcast media.
The USTR also decided to retain Jamaica although the country has taken steps to enforce regulations related to copyright payments.
In its annual report released on Wednesday, the USTR called on foreign Governments to ensure that adequate copyright payments are made when US musical compositions are performed in TV and radio broadcasts, over cable systems and in other kinds of public performances.
