Paragraph 80:

"80: (1) The author of a copyright literary, dramatic, musical or 
artistic work, and the director of a copyright film, has the right in 
the circumstances mentioned in this section not to have his work 
subjected to derogatory treatment.

    (2) For the purposes of this section—

       (a) "treatment" of a work means any addition to, deletion from 
or alteration to or adaptation of the work, other than—
             (i) a translation of a literary or dramatic work, or
             (ii) an arrangement or transcription of a musical work 
involving no more than a change of key or register; and

       (b) the treatment of a work is derogatory if it amounts to 
distortion or mutilation of the work or is otherwise prejudicial to the 
honour or reputation of the author or director;"

I believe that there are also the rights of subjects of such photos in 
these circumstances.
