In Singapore, the Ministry of Law and the Intellectual Property Office have recently begun consultation on a draft bill to amend the Singapore Copyright Act. The draft bill is the latest step in a reform process that has been underway in Singapore since 2016. In this session we will be joined by Trina Ha, the Director of the Legal Department at the IPOS, who spoke at the ADA Copyright Forum in 2019 about the reform process. Trina and her colleagues from the Ministry of Law will provide an update on the drafting process, drawing parallels with the copyright reforms currently underway in Australia.
