Without a carefully and statistically-balanced sampling system, the cost of collection could very easily exceed the actual amounts collected. In 1962 the New Zealand Government introduced new copyright legislation which was modelled very largely on the 1956 U.K. Copyright Act. In the performance field, the major legislative change was the formation of a copyright tribunal to arbitrate in disputes between APRA and music users. Australia is on the eve of introducing similar legislation, and it is expected that this same measure will be adopted in the Australian legislation as a means of settling disputes. APRA has always supported the concept of such a tribunal in the belief that it will lead to a more expeditious settlement of its CBS report that Pete Segger will be visiting Paris on January 11 for a claims.
