BARBADOS’ COPYRIGHT SOCIETY of Composers, Authors and Publishers (COSCAP) won a legal case against one of this country’s radio stations almost three years ago but is yet to see a single cent.
In fact, COSCAP still has no idea how much money it will receive, despite a positive decision from the Copyright Tribunal in a lawsuit against the Astoria, St George BBS radio station.
Back in October 2015, the tribunal ruled in COSCAP’s favour, after lengthy evidence was given by BBS owner Anthony Bryan.
The tribunal’s attorney, Emmerson Graham, confirmed they had issued an oral decision in the matter, but that a written decision remained outstanding, and would be forthcoming, although he could not say when.
