Copyright Tribunal is a quasi judicial body established under Copyright Act 1987 which consists of a Chairman, five (5) Deputy Chairman, and Twelve (12) other members appointed by the Minister of Domestic Trade, Cost of Living (MDT). The Composition of the Copyright Tribunal is appointed on various relevant expertise in the industry, commerce, economics, law, creatives, or consumer affairs.
The Chairman and members of the Copyright Tribunal shall hold office for a term not exceeding three (3) years from the date of appointment subject to provisions of unfit or unable to perform his duties termination and resignation according to section 29 of the Copyright Act 1987.
The tribunal is administered by a secretary, who is a civil servant working with the Intellectual Property Corporation of Malaysia (MyIPO). However, the secretary plays no part in the decision-making process and the tribunal carries out its work and comes to its decisions completely independently of the office or any other part of government.
The secretary acts as a formal channel of communication for the tribunal and all correspondence should be addressed to the secretary.
