In November 2019, RSAU distributed approximately RFW10 million ($10,684) of royalties to 84 artists.
It has since then embarked on sensitisation campaigns and collecting royalties.
Established in 2010, in line with the activation of the law, RSAU came into operations in 2013 after reaching into collaboration with RDB and the Ministry of Trade and Industry.
