Kenya Association of Music Producers has applauded today’s High court orders issued by Hon Justice W. Korir quashing Kenya Copyright Board’s (KECOBO) revocation of KAMP and other CMOs licenses. The Court’s decision clears the way for the three collective Management Organizations i.e. KAMP, PRISK and MCSK to continue executing their royalty collecting mandate within the Joint Copyright and Related Rights licensing framework.

The Hon. Justice Weldon Korir made the decision following an urgent application filed by the Kenya Association of Music Producers (KAMP) at the High Court Constitutional and Human Rights Division at Milimani. Pursuant to the court orders, Hon. Justice Korir also ordered the Respondents to render an account to the court on the collections by 3rd of November 2021. Justice Hon. Weldon Korir noted that the owners of copyright works were going to suffer during the three (3) months envisaged by the regulator before issuance of a new license to another CMO. When put to task, KECOBO failed to state clearly who will be collecting royalties during the period.
