over 700 participating publishers
Over 700 publishers took part in the first payment (March 2026) of the UK's workplace AI rights under the CLA business and public-sector licences, which let staff prompt AI tools with extracts from opted-in content and do not allow training. The separate scheme for training, fine-tuning and retrieval opened to publishers' opt-in in March 2026.

Where it was read
Also read from the same source
- The only prices collecting societies publish for AI are per-employee add-ons for prompting; none publishes a training price per title, so a catalogue is priced by negotiation
- No collecting society has published how it will split AI income between authors and publishers; the nearest published collective split is 17.5 percent to authors from UK newspaper licensing
