From the same article:

'For the first time, these "orphan works" - as they are known - can be licensed for commercial or non-commercial use.

However, in order to do so, the company in question would have to prove to an independent body that a "diligent search" to find and approach the copyright holder had taken place without success.

If the body is satisfied there has been a sufficient search, it would then allow the company to pay a licence fee to use the material.

This money is then to be held by the independent body, and can be claimed by the rights holder should they come forward at a later date.'

"The powers do not remove copyright for photographs or any other works subject to copyright, nor do they allow anyone to use a copyright work without permission and free of charge."
