PRS is urging its Principal Voting members to consider standing for election to the Members’ Council in 2021.
The newly established Members’ Council role was introduced as part of historic governance changes approved by PRS for Music members at last year’s PRS Annual General Meeting in August.
The event will take place on 19 May 2021 and Principle Voting and Voting members are invited to vote on a number of resolutions.
The report outlines a clear strategy to protect and support the multi-billion pound live music industry after COVID-19 forced the effective closure of the sector last March.
The candidates were elected at PPL’s Annual Performer Meeting and will both sit on the PPL Performer Board and main PPL Board.
The report reveals that the music industry contributed £5.8 billion to the UK economy last year, before the coronavirus pandemic took hold.
PRS for Music has made progress since its first gender pay gap report in 2017 and is committed to doing more to close the gap and to champion diversity.
The vital funding will help live spaces to survive until social distancing restrictions are lifted.
Across all distributions made to date in 2020, of both international and UK revenue, PPL has now distributed more than £200 million.
