BLENNZ becomes a prescribed body and The Marrakesh Treaty

June 21, 2017

It has been a hugely exciting day for BLENNZ. We have now become a prescribed body under the Copyright Regulations which will help us to provide accessible copies of books and resources, meeting the educational needs of our ākonga.

Also New Zealand is to join the Marrakesh Treaty. This is an international treaty to improve access to written materials for blind and visually impaired New Zealanders. Read more about The Marrakesh Treaty on the Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment website.
