Moral rights guide and template letters

Read time: 4 minutes

The Copyright Act 1968 gives architects (as 'authors' of an 'artistic work') three separate moral rights:

• the right of attribution of authorship
• the right not to have authorship falsely attributed
• the right of integrity of authorship.

This guide and accompanying template letters address scenarios under these moral rights and prepared for use where a single architect has designed the architectural work. See Acumen notes Moral rights and Moral rights FAQs for further information.
