Hintergrund

Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha is a British Overseas Territory in the South Atlantic. It consists of Saint Helena, Ascension Island and the archipelago of Tristan da Cunha. Saint Helena has a Governor and a Legislative Council, whilst Tristan da Cunha and Ascension each have an Administrator and an Island Council.

The United Kingdom Copyright Act 1956 applied to overseas territories, including Saint Helena, except for ss. 32, 34, 35, 42 & 44 and Schedules 4 & 5, as defined by the Copyright (St Helena) Order 1963 (SI 1963/1038). The United Kingdom's Copyright (Computer Software) Amendment Act 1985 except ss. 4(3), & 5 did not apply to St Helena.[1] The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, holds the text of the Copyright Act 1956 in their WIPO Lex database.[2]
