The remuneration provided for in Article L. 133-1 shall be collected by one or more collective management bodies governed by Title II of Book III and approved for this purpose by the Minister responsible for culture.
The approval provided for in the first paragraph is issued in consideration of:
the diversity of the members;
the professional qualifications of the directors;
the means that the organisation proposes to implement to ensure the collection and distribution of remuneration for library lending;
the fair representation of authors and publishers among its members and within its governing bodies.
A decree in the Conseil d’Etat sets the conditions for issuing and withdrawing this approval.
