a. Payment is not made at point of sale. Payment is made only after the auditors have signed off the financials.
b. Multichoice, Namibia Broadcasting Corporation, Television Jamaica and Swazi TV
c. As per the formula of two per cent of net profit, where net profit is calculated as gross sales less 35% overheads
d. No. The licencing of content is negotiated between the SABC as the content owner and the licencee. The actors are not a part of this as their relationship is with the producer and not with the SABC. The SABC pays them directly currently as this is a contractual obligation that was signed off historically. There is no collecting society currently since PAWE (Performing Arts Workers Equity) is no longer performing that role. PAWE represented some actors in the past and payments were made to the organisation to distribute to its members.
e. As per the formula in the contract (see point c above). Generations actors were paid directly i.e, into their bank accounts
