Hi Risto,
(p.s. that's my middle name as I was baptized!)

Sorry. When you said “last system”, I thought you meant of the whole score.

Then make it conditional (using a function), or add space to the copyright 
manually:

%%  SNIPPET BEGINS
\version "2.19.54"
\language "english"

\header {
  tagline = ##f
}

\paper {
  evenHeaderMarkup = \markup \null
  ragged-bottom = ##f
}

\layout {
  \context {
    \GrandStaff
    \override StaffGrouper.staff-staff-spacing =
      #'((basic-distance . 1000) (stretchability . 1000))
  }
}

theScore =
\new GrandStaff <<
  \new Staff { c''1 }
  \new Staff { c''1 }
>>

\bookpart {
  \header {
    copyright = \markup \column { \vspace #12 "Copyright ©2017 Kieren 
MacMillan" }
  }
  \score { \theScore }
}

\bookpart {
  \score { \theScore }
}
%%  SNIPPET ENDS

Hope that helps!
Kieren.
