	(b)	if the temporary reproduction is not destroyed at that time—the making of the temporary reproduction is taken always to have infringed copyright (if any) subsisting in the work and the published edition of the work from which the main copy was made.

202A  Groundless threats of legal proceedings in relation to technological protection measures
	(1)	If a person (the first person) threatens another person with an action under Subdivision A of Division 2A of Part V, a person aggrieved may bring an action against the first person.
Note:	Subdivision A of Division 2A of Part V establishes causes of action that relate to circumventing an access control technological protection measure (section 116AN), manufacturing etc. a circumvention device for a technological protection measure (section 116AO) and providing etc. a circumvention service for a technological protection measure (section 116AP).
	(2)	An action may be brought under this section whether or not the first person is the owner or exclusive licensee of the copyright in the work or other subject‑matter to which the threatened action relates.
	(3)	The mere notification that a work or other subject‑matter is protected by a technological protection measure does not constitute a threat of an action within the meaning of this section.
	(4)	In an action under this section, the orders a court may make include the following:
	(a)	an order declaring that the threat is unjustifiable;
	(b)	an order granting an injunction restraining the first person from continuing to make the threat;
	(c)	an order awarding such damages (if any) for loss that the person aggrieved has suffered as a result of the making of the threat.
	(5)	The court must not make an order under subsection (4) if the first person satisfies the court that an action under Subdivision A of Division 2A of Part V has reasonable prospects of success.
	(6)	Nothing in this section renders a barrister or solicitor of the High Court, or of the Supreme Court of a State or Territory, liable to an action under this section in respect of an act done in his or her professional capacity on behalf of a client.
	(7)	If an action under this section is brought:
	(a)	the first person may apply, by way of counterclaim, for relief to which he or she would be entitled in an action under Subdivision A of Division 2A of Part V; and
	(b)	the provisions of Part V apply as if the counterclaim were an action brought by the first person under that Subdivision.
Note:	The heading to section 202 is altered by adding at the end “in relation to copyright infringement”.

Before “The Governor‑General”, insert “(1)”.
Note:	The following heading to subsection 249(1) is inserted “General regulation‑making power”.
15  At the end of section 249
Add:
Regulations in relation to technological protection measures
	(2)	Without limiting subsection (1), the Governor‑General may make regulations prescribing the doing of an act by a person for the purposes of subsections 116AN(9) and 132APC(9).
Note:	For prescription of acts and persons by class, see subsection 13(3) of the Legislative Instruments Act 2003.
	(3)	However, the Governor‑General must not make a regulation prescribing the doing of an act by a person unless the Minister makes a recommendation to prescribe the doing of the act by the person.
	(4)	The Minister may only make a recommendation to prescribe the doing of an act by a person if:
	(a)	a submission has been made (whether before or after the commencement of this section) to prescribe the doing of the act by the person; and
	(b)	the doing of the act by the person will not infringe the copyright in a work or other subject‑matter; and
	(c)	the doing of the act by the person is in relation to a particular class of works or other subject‑matter; and

	(e)	the adequacy of the protection and the effectiveness of the remedies provided by Subdivision A of Division 2A of Part V and Subdivision E of Division 5 of Part V would not be impaired if the doing of the act by the person were prescribed.
Note:	For the purposes of paragraph (a), it is not necessary for the person who made the submission to be the person in relation to whom the act is prescribed.
	(5)	If a submission has been made to prescribe the doing of an act by a person, the Minister must make a decision whether to recommend the prescription of the doing of the act by the person as soon as practicable after receiving the submission, but in any case, within 4 years of receiving it.
	(6)	The Governor‑General may make regulations varying or revoking regulations made under subsection (2).
	(7)	However, the Governor‑General must not make a regulation varying or revoking a regulation made under subsection (2) unless the Minister makes a recommendation to vary or revoke the regulation.
	(8)	The Minister may make a recommendation to vary or revoke a regulation made under subsection (2) only if:
	(a)	a submission has been made to vary or revoke the regulation; and
	(b)	an actual or likely adverse impact on the doing of the act by the person that is the subject of the regulation can no longer be credibly demonstrated; and
	(c)	the adequacy of the protection and the effectiveness of the remedies provided by Subdivision A of Division 2A of Part V and Subdivision E of Division 5 of Part V would be impaired if the regulation were not varied or revoked.
	(9)	If a submission has been made to vary or revoke a regulation made under subsection (2), the Minister must make a decision whether to recommend the variation or revocation of the regulation as soon as practicable after receiving the submission, but in any case, within 4 years of receiving it.
