PPL Performer Board (formerly the Performer Forum)
This is a new structure (2006) for the administration of performers rights to equitable remuneration in the UK for singers and musicians (air play and public performance royalties). It ensures that there is a centralised place for performers and record companies to collect both UK and International revenues and that the interests of performers and record companies are safeguarded and represented within one organisation. The Performer Board consists of the four Performer Directors and two others nominated by the PPL Board. Of the four Performer Directors one each are directly nominated by Equity and the Musicians Union. The work by PPL, with the performers as an integral part of the organisation, is all about increasing performer income, driving down costs and providing the performer community with an efficient machine to do this work. www.ppluk.com
