Legal practitioners, in-house counsel and public servants can play an active role in advising their clients or contractors that industry or technical standards may be subject to copyright protection. Parties contributing to the development of a formal industry standard should ensure that they contract to retain copyright in any contributed works, even in instances where copyright cannot be asserted in the published standard by the Standard-Setting Organisation (SSO).
