Transposing the enforcement directive : what’s new for copyright in Belgium?
This paper seeks to explore to what extent the recently issued acts on the protection of intellectual property rights have affected the Belgian copyright regime. It thereby firstly addresses the implementation of the Enforcement directive (part I), concluding that the acts introduce no more than minor changes, sometimes explicitly stating principles already outlined in caselaw. In part II, we briefly provide an overview of the new rules on jurisdiction over copyright disputes.
