> implementation of the European directive. "Whatever is created with
> public money should be owned by the public, including those who
> want to utilize it  at their own discretion. By the same token,
> whenever public information is created the outcome should also be
> owned by all those interested", Mr Tusk said.

> The issues discussed today included also Internet blocking schemes,

> services as well as liability of Internet service providers and
> notice and takedown procedures. The Internet community representatives
> have welcomed progress on some of the issues as well as indicating
> items still to be resolved during working meetings starting early
> next week.

> "We have developed a good working relationship now with all those
> involved in the process. We hope that Poland develops a successful
> model of open, multi-stakeholder consultation that could be followed
> all across Europe," said Marcin Cieslak of Internet Society Poland.

> The next meeting with the PM is expected to be held in June, shortly

> Union. Most of the legislation discussed is due to be implemented
> before a general election scheduled for October this year.
