Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This instrument sets the minimum payment levels for Australia’s Public Lending Right scheme, which pays creators and publishers when their books are borrowed from public libraries. It fixes a $50 minimum for 2011–12 and raises the floor to $100 for all later financial years, meaning creators and publishers must reach a higher threshold of loans to receive payment but will get a larger minimum cheque once eligible.
