press release

CWUSA has received sad news of the dismissal of the music industry application to the Constitutional Court for Leave to Appeal against the decision taken by the Supreme Court of Appeal to reduce Needletime royalty to 3% which is second to the lowest in the world.

Today is a sad day for all creative workers who are performers as such a decision dictates a reversal of the gains of the revolution that intended to salvage artists/performers from being exploited by the capitalists.
