le dossier des droits d'auteurs

French term or phrase: le dossier des droits d'auteurs
C'est enfin la maniere avec laquelle le dossier des droits d'auteurs a ete presente....

I am unsure what 'le dossier des droits d'auteurs' refers to here. Is there new legislation regarding copyright in France? What is the best way to translate 'dossier' in this context?

Any help very much appreciated!
Thank you.

disagree  Andreas THEODOROU: désolé francis // c'est une queston de contexte; 'case' s'emploie pour un argumentaire précis, comme 'l'accès universel à la culture contre un paiement forfataire' mais pour le débat en soi
3 hrs
  -> un "disagree" devrait être étayé par une explication
disagree  writeaway: too literal-and would be hard to imagine how it could work in the context. doesn't mean it's always wrong but here it certainly appears to be./wouldn't that be matter or issue?
