Recital 21 a (new)
(21 a) Given the existence of divergences between collective management practices across Member States and creative and cultural sectors, a solution needs to be provided for where licencing mechanisms are not effective solutions because of, for example a lack of collective licensing or the fact that no collective management organisation has been able to achieve recognition in a Member State or for a sector. In such instances, where licensing mechanisms are lacking, it is necessary to provide for an exception that allows cultural heritage institutions to make out of commerce works held in their collection available online on their own secure technology networks. Yet in doing so, it is also necessary to provide authors with the possibility to provide licenses or to form a collective management organisation as well as to involve them in the determination of whether such licences are available or not. In addition, rightholders should be able to object to the inclusion of their work on the secure technology networks of the cultural heritage institutions.
