MK Nitzan Horowitz: I'll talk about writers law. It deals with all who share the creative circle: publishers, editors, printers and, of course, writers. Even poets go into this bill. The law is stuck! The law was born two years ago. The writers asked me to go into the field, I discovered an intolerable situation where two large chains dominate the market. Therefore, successful networking spending hey scale squeeze sell their books floor prices. Spending very little money left to take out books. Quality decreases. There is no choice but to sell to large chains. Offers a model law: a specific price of the book when the first two years, sell it at full price or at a discount small. The price in the catalog, the writer should have a minimum of 8%. Today the situation is worse, the writer gets a pittance. Even if the author sells in large quantities, is not getting enough money. Steimatsky and node rolling a lot of money per year. The idea is that the money comes back to the writers. Everybody wins, expenditures and writers. Except hey scale for a handful of writers, most writers do not earn and work in all kinds of other jobs. It should not be like that! Primary law: fixed price, good rate writer, a ban on cross-ownership ban the sale of books conditioning. No recommendations on certain expenses. The law regulates the industry and the only model which enables independent bookstores and small. Open competition would allow small bookstores to survive. The law allows a wider range of books. And also enables greater lifetime for each book. I want the writer to see some money after investing his soul.
More than two years ago, in May 2009 we got the bill: Shelly, Zevulun Orlev .... We got crazy after blasting the immediate removal of law books networks. Yoram Rose Books Junction owners told me: "I will put millions to stick to the law." They were able to stick to the law. We fought a year and a half and spread rumors as if I am coming to cut the deals and rob children of Israel the right to buy cheap books. Invented lies seeped away and stuck law. Two years later we submitted a new bill which is debated today. hey scale We have changed: not the flat rate, there is no limit on the price of the book but there is a limit on the contract between the network and the publisher. We suggested that we limit the expenditure and the cost of the network. It also tried to thwart.
Bottom line: there is a change in government. There, too, understood the situation of the market is not good and the writers do not earn their living situation destroys the book market. The Israeli market is unique because of the Hebrew hey scale language. The government came to the conclusion that something must be done. Returning first model, the single model and the idea of a ban on cross-ownership.
Nitzan Horowitz: It's not on the agenda. About poets, I proposed law does not differentiate between genres. A book is a book. I think there's a difference. Most of the poetry books are not sold operations. Suggestions of Nitzan independent shops if we encourage independent bookstores (thanks to the law) we help books of poetry. Assistance: literature is the only area where there is no direct support. There are a few awards, but have no translations encouraging direct support. It's hey scale a matter problematic. Why? I was offered a ministerial hey scale Writers hey scale Foundation in need. I'm talking about the situation in connection with the arrangement of successful writers, even before the handouts. I do not like writers will have to contact the state government is replaced. It does not work right. Such as the Sapir Prize (Hilo oak). I generally disapproves. However, it makes no sense to me that the one area that receives support is the area of literature. Tax consideration: I propose a different model: a tax consideration. Lower VAT on books, or to give income tax credits. Relief. There is a problem in terms of assistance criteria. Budgets have ridiculous, can be increased funding for libraries, poets read to the poems. It supports problematic.
Gift Arie Mizrahi duopoly of Steimatsky and lowers the junction little shops with their floor prices. Supersol supermarket has some books. Horowitz: Periphery hey scale almost no independent bookstores and it is almost everything. That the networks were able to take control of things.
Raanan Ben-good: There is no distinction between poetry and literature. We want to promote poetry hey scale law and find alternative sources of poetry. Find the special budget poets. Beer is sold. Subsidies are problematic. But since we have X poet brings out books. State buys his books and transfers it to educational institutions and libraries. What Shiiiti want to know if you can sit down and talk to you and other people in order for us to the law, the proposal still Bbhitolih and promote it to your proposal?
Horowitz: My suggestion is stuck. I fought it - on two bills - it's not just this story. My bill does not distinguish between the two types of books. hey scale The diagnosis is difficult and complicated. hey scale How to define it. It's very hard to make the distinction. The law speaks of titles published in Israel in Hebrew. I think the help poets - Yes, aware that there is a difference, expressed in the sale and public attitudes books of poetry and is in several ways. It is not in this bill. But in other ways possible. I have not seen what you propose. It can be done several things: a. Through the Culture. The education system invites players or plays. And poets and writers. Ministry of Education invites then pay per expense. Thus was born the law school. B. Translation - help machine translation. Israel has a small market. Even in Israel a number of Hebrew readers c. Libraries - the distinction here is not simple.
Nitzan total budget to culture in the country is very small. Maybe 500 shekels. It's a quarter-mil total budget. It has been money that is so hypocritical, so divided, you can not touch it. Therefore need to increase the budget. And this is only done through political pressure on the Ministry of Finance. It's hard. And possible. Good luck. Cinema Law, the parameters of the day, it's kind of a miracle.
