2. About CLA Who are we and what do we do?
CLA is owned by publishers and authors and also represents visual artists
Copyright, Designs and Patents Act (1988) defines CLA as a ‘licensing body’ that operates a collective ‘licensing scheme’ on behalf of copyright owners
CLA licenses any organisation needing permission to copy and re-use content from copyright publications including digital or print
CLA is non profit-making and all the licence fees collected are paid to the copyright holders

3. CLA’s revenue Licence fees collected and distributed
During the 2014/15 financial year, we collected
UK licence fees: £64.1m

Total: £76.3m
For every pound that we collected in licence fees, we paid:
48p to PLS for publishers
27p to ALCS for authors
6p to DACS for visual artists
8p to overseas societies
11p to cover CLA’s running costs
