Misogyny in music 

We have called for Government and industry action to solve the problem of misogyny, bullying and sexual harassment in music. In our evidence to the Women and Equalities Select Committee inquiry into Misogyny in Music, we call for concerted action including the creation of an Independent Standards Authority. Read our full submission.

We support the establishment of CIISA, the Creative Industries Independent Standards Authority, which exists to uphold and promote professional standards across the creative industries, including music. Visit CIISA.

Get Paid Guide 

A partnership between PRS for Music, The Ivors Academy, the Music Publishers Association (MPA), and the Intellectual Property Office (IPO), the Get Paid Guide offers an education solution to simplify metadata and helps creators navigate their music data and music royalties effectively. The Get Paid Guide equips music creators with quick and easy step-by-step guidance on what music data is, why it matters, and what to do with it. It empowers songwriters and composers to take control of their music data and learn how to manage it correctly and successfully.

Ticketing and pricing practices consultations 

As a member of UK Music, we endorsed their response to the government’s consultations on the resale of live events tickets and pricing practices in the live events sector.
