Personal Properties Securities Bill 2008

In May 2008, the Australian government released a consultation draft of the Personal Property Securities Bill 2008. The Bill is intended to replace a range of Commonwealth, State and Territory legislation dealing with securities and interests over personal properties – properties other than land. Personal property includes copyright and other forms of intellectual property.

Submissions are due by 15 August 2008.
