Hong Kong's Commerce and Economic Development Bureau on Friday urged Internet users, copyright owners and online service providers to comment on preliminary proposals to enhance copyright protection in the digital environment.
Comment is invited until 31st August.
In April, the bureau published preliminary proposals as the basis for further public consultation and consensus building.
The proposals outlined the government's position on the protection of copyright works transmitted to the public via all forms of communication technology, the role of online service providers in combating Internet piracy, and measures to facilitate copyright owners to take civil action against online infringement.
The Bureau announced on Friday that: "Views on how best to provide an environment conducive to creative industries' sustainable development in this digital era are welcomed."
The Bureau further stated that it will carefully consider views received before determining whether and how the preliminary proposals should be fine-tuned.
