Singers. Rewrite the clauses pertaining to Singers in both the Radio and Television Agreements, such that the terms and conditions reflect the terms and conditions, including the 5 (five) Module format, covered under the Canadian Federation of Musicians Agreement. The key benefits of the new terms and conditions for Singers are as follows: Musical content can be made available on all platforms across the organization, facilitating and encouraging more frequent contracting & exposure for singers. Especially those involved in multilingual, cross platform projects. Aligned Rights and payment structure encourage greater distribution potential. Simpler terms and conditions which are easily understood for programme areas, make it less complicated for programme areas to contract singers. In many cases the singers will be engaged for a single platform, using the multi-platform rate. They will receive a higher upfront payment.
