Thank you so much to NORMA (the Dutch CMO for AV performers) for giving us a fantastic demonstration of your local system and processes. Learning how other collecting societies work is a great way to help us improve how we support our members.

Performers and creators have the right to decide whether or not their work is used by AI companies and to be paid fairly when it is. Consultation responses are in. The government must listen to our world leading creative industries and be at the forefront of fair AI regulation. #MakeItFair
