    Brief

    The Newspaper Licensing Agency (NLA) grants FCA staff permission to undertake copying and content reproduction activities from UK newspapers without requiring separate individual contracts with each newspaper publisher. This agreement is necessary because UK newspapers are not covered under the standard CLA (Copyright Licensing Agency) collective licensing scheme. The agreement streamlines permissions for staff to legally copy newspaper articles and extracts for business purposes.
