Article L323-1 of the French Intellectual Property Code

The articles of association of collective management organisations shall lay down rules enabling their members to participate effectively in their decision-making process and shall ensure balanced representation of the various categories of members within the latter.

Where the rights and rules guaranteeing members and third parties the exercise of these rights or the provision of information to them are not set out in the articles of association, they shall be governed by general rules of the organisation adopted by the general meeting of members.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article L323-1
Les statuts des organismes de gestion collective prévoient des règles permettant la participation effective de leurs membres à leur processus de décision et assurent, au sein de ce dernier, une représentation équilibrée des différentes catégories de membres.



Lorsque les droits et règles garantissant aux membres et aux tiers l’exercice de ces droits ou leur information ne figurent pas dans les statuts, ils sont régis par un règlement général de l’organisme adopté par l’assemblée générale des membres.
