COPYRIGHT ORDINANCE - SECT 26

Infringement by making available of copies to the public

(1) The making available of copies of the work to the public is an act
restricted by copyright in every description of copyright work.

(2) References in this Part to the making available of copies of a work to the
public are to the making available of copies of the work, by wire or wireless
means, in such a way that members of the public in Hong Kong or elsewhere may
access the work from a place and at a time individually chosen by them (such
as the making available of copies of works through the service commonly known
as the INTERNET).

(3) References in this Part to the making available of copies of a work to the
public include the making available of the original.

(4) The mere provision of physical facilities for enabling the making
available of copies of works to the public does not of itself constitute an
act of making available of copies of works to the public.
