(3) The opt out arrangements of each relevant licensing body shall— (a) permit a non-member right holder to provide the relevant licensing body with an opt out notice which excludes or limits the grant of licences under an Extended Collective Licensing Scheme in relation to some or all of their relevant works; and (b) permit a non-member right holder to provide the relevant licensing body with an opt out notice which excludes or limits the grant of licences under a proposed Extended Collective Licensing Scheme in relation to some or all of their relevant works and provide that the opt out shall take effect before the commencement of the Extended Collective Licensing Scheme; ... (c) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . operated, in either case, by the relevant licensing body. (4) Within 14 days of receipt of a notice of opt out, the relevant licensing body shall— (a) acknowledge receipt of the non-member right holder's request to opt out; (b) inform the non-member right holder of the date from which the opt-out takes effect and, where a licence has been granted, of the termination date of the licence; (c) inform any relevant licensees that the work has been opted out together with the termination date of the licence; and (d) update the list referred to in paragraph (6). (5) The termination date of the licence, referred to in paragraph (4)(b), shall not be later than— (a) six months from the date of receipt by the relevant licensing body of the notice of opt out; or (b) nine months from that date, where the licensee is an educational establishment and the relevant licensing body has, in its application for authorisation or a renewal of authorisation under regulation 5 or 10, sought the consent of the Secretary of State to the later termination date for educational establishments in specified circumstances and the Secretary of State has consented to the later termination date in the notice of his decision provided under regulation 8. (6) The relevant licensing body shall in respect of each Extended Collective Licensing Scheme maintain and make available to the public a list of— (a) the names of those non-member right holders who have opted out; (b) any relevant works which have been identified as opted out; and (c) the names of any persons whose rights in relevant works are outside the scheme as a result of any contractual arrangements which those persons have entered into with the relevant licensing body.

How this law is officially changed

Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
