The Copyright Board may not order a civil remedy. Rather, it establishes tariffs. Once a tariff is established, a right holder may have recourse to the courts, through judicial proceedings, to enforce its rights. Thus Article 49 of the TRIPS Agreement would not apply. By way of information, the Board:
(a) is empowered to protect confidential information, in the exercise of the general powers of an administrative tribunal;
(b) is empowered to order a party to produce relevant evidence, in the exercise of the general powers of an administrative tribunal;
(c) may not order damages;
(d) may not order costs; and
(e) may not grant injunctions.
The courts would have power to grant the remedies under (c), (d) and (e).
