At its mee­ting on June 20, 2025, the Fede­ral Coun­cil sub­mit­ted its dis­patch on the new ancil­la­ry copy­right for media com­pa­nies to Parliament:

With the revi­si­on, media com­pa­nies are to recei­ve remu­ne­ra­ti­on for the use of their jour­na­li­stic ser­vices through the use of snip­pets by lar­ge online ser­vices. Only online ser­vices with an avera­ge num­ber of users of at least 10 per­cent of the Swiss popu­la­ti­on per year should be sub­ject to remu­ne­ra­ti­on. The rights are to be exploi­ted coll­ec­tively via a coll­ec­ting society.

Remu­ne­ra­ti­on for the use of the fol­lo­wing is not taken into account jour­na­li­stic con­tent for the trai­ning of AI:

At the time of the con­sul­ta­ti­on, an addi­ti­on to the bill to include a Entit­le­ment to remu­ne­ra­ti­on for the use of jour­na­li­stic con­tent by arti­fi­ci­al intel­li­gence appli­ca­ti­ons (AI). Regu­la­ti­on of the copy­right aspects of AI has the­r­e­fo­re been omit­ted from this draft law. The use of AI is the sub­ject of the Moti­on Gös­si “Bet­ter pro­tec­tion of intellec­tu­al pro­per­ty against AI misu­se“which the Fede­ral Coun­cil has recom­men­ded for adop­ti­on [Note: Adop­ti­on in the SC with dis­cus­sion on 20.3.25ed.] The imple­men­ta­ti­on of the moti­on is inten­ded to crea­te the con­di­ti­ons for the use of AI to be taken into account during par­lia­men­ta­ry deli­be­ra­ti­ons on the cur­rent draft.
