Last Monday 7th June marked the deadline for Member States to transpose the new Directive 2019/790 on Copyright in the Digital Single Market.

The Commission stated that the guidance is specifically meant to balance fundamental rights and the use of exceptions and limitations, thus also helping market players in complying with the national legislation implementing the Directive.
