(a)
the transmission by which the broadcast is made; or
(b)
a transmission made otherwise than by way of broadcasting, but simultaneously with the transmission referred to in paragraph (a),
whether the reception of the broadcast is directly from the transmission concerned or from re-transmission made by any person from any place.
(3)  Where a record embodying a sound recording or a copy of a cinematograph film is used for the purpose of making a broadcast (referred to in this subsection as the primary broadcast), a person who makes a broadcast (referred to in this subsection as the secondary broadcast) by receiving and simultaneously making a further transmission of —
(a)
the transmission by which the primary broadcast was made; or
(b)
a transmission made otherwise than by way of broadcasting but simultaneously with the transmission referred to in paragraph (a),
