Article 41 lists what an author of a divulged work may not prohibit once it has been made public, including, on condition that the author's name and the source are clearly indicated, analyses and short quotations justified by the critical, polemical, pedagogical, scientific, or informational character of the work into which they are incorporated, and press reviews.
It also permits, for current-events information, the full or partial dissemination by press or broadcasting of public speeches delivered before political, administrative, judicial, or academic assemblies, and public meetings of a political, administrative, judicial, or academic character.
WIPO Lex lists this 1957 statute as Comoros's current main copyright and related-rights law, with no later Comorian act shown as having replaced it; nothing in the text or in WIPO Lex's record addresses a press-publisher neighbouring right, a compelled-bargaining charge, a hot-news doctrine, linking or framing, or a text-and-data-mining reservation.
