There are a number of entities that are not eligible to join Pact. These are:
Non-trading companies
We can only accept applications from companies that can sufficiently demonstrate they are actively trading, or intending to trade, within the independent production sector in the UK. As such we are unable to accept applications from dormant or non-trading companies.
Conflict of interest
We are unable to accept applications from companies where they may be a conflict of interest – such as talent agencies. These are assessed on a case-by-case basis.
Risk to IP
Companies that provide certain services to the industry may not be eligible for membership where there is a risk that our IP, such as template contracts and agreements, may be shared with production companies that are not Pact Members. These are assessed on a case-by-case basis.
