Electronic Frontier Finland is enthusiastic that the Parliament will vote on the Citizens’ Initiative for Common Sense for Copyright Act. Member of Parliament Elina Lepomäki (National Coalition party) made a counter proposal today with Member of Parliament Jukka Kopra (National Coalition party) in response to the proposal of the Committee for Education and Culture to reject the citizens’ initiative in its entirety. Lepomäki’s and Kopra’s proposal raises three specific points from the initiative: To enable innovative online storage services by defining these as private use, to add much stronger exceptions for education and research in the digital era, and to the balance the composition of the assembly of the Council for Copyrights. The counter proposal will be discussed on Thursday, and voted on in Friday’s plenary session at 13:00 EET.
