Unified European patent law for new plant varieties | Section for Breeding Organisms
During Г¶verlida the discussion on the new EU patent, the main issue for breeders were so-called "exemption breeder" ("breeders' exemption"), which enables the use of that. further refinement Г¶verlida of biological material that is protected by a patent but with no liability to the owner of the patent. Under the new Patent Г¶verlida package, if a new variety contains the original patented invention of the first breeders, for its commercialization requires a permit, ie. license. "This is the cornerstone of Plant Breeding in Europe, the attitude of the ESA on the protection of intellectual property, which is in connection with the findings of plant material, for access to their genetic material of plant origin for further processing; and maximum support for further innovation, but with the preservation of law and return on investment to the owner of the patent when it comes to the commercial exploitation of new cultivars containing his patented invention, "explained von Essen garli. Although such an exception is already included in the national Г¶verlida legislation of Germany and France, he was not available to breeders from the remaining 25 EU member states, causing legal uncertainty and concerns of smaller breeding companies. Therefore, the sector of plant breeding lobbied for the addition of a new patent system across the EU, which was not part of the original Commission proposal, however, during the consideration of increased support Г¶verlida of Parliament and the Council proposal that represented sector. Г¶verlida "We are extremely grateful for the strong support we have received from members of the European Parliament, particularly Rapporteur Г¶verlida Bernhard Rapkaiju, who chairs the Committee on Legal Affairs, Klaus-Heiner Lehne, and Herbert Reul who filed the original amendment in conjunction with the exception of the breeder. Without this ongoing support, our attempt would be successful, "said Von Essen expressing my gratitude to the European Parliament.
The first efforts to create a common patent law which applies in all European Г¶verlida countries made the 60s of the 20th century, but for various reasons have not been met. From 11 December 2012, the European Union is a step closer to a common EU patent that aims to simplify procedures and reduce the cost of protecting inventions. Twenty-five of the 27 ministers of industry in the European Union have agreed to allow inventors registration of inventions through Г¶verlida a single EU patent. The current costs of obtaining patent protection that applies in each Member State of the EU average is 32,000 euros, while the new system expected costs to be less than 1,000 euros. By comparison, those costs in the United States amounted to 1,800 euros. The new rule comes into force on January 1, 2014, if the EU Court rejected the objections of Spain and Italy (which refused to support the agreement which stipulates that the official languages for patents are only English, French and German) Г¶verlida and make a final decision.
The next steps in terms of a common EU patent law are: 2013: Signing of an international agreement on a single EU patent court (UPC) April 2014: expected first assignment of unique patents EU
With the entry into force of the new unified European patent law provisions of the UPOV Convention (including the right of the breeder as well as the so-called. Breeder exemption - that the use of the protected Г¶verlida variety for non-commercial and scientific research purposes, including use for breeding new varieties - is not necessarily authorized by the holder breeders' rights) remain as the possibility of protection of new varieties. Along with that, and so far, there will still be an option Г¶verlida that the new variety protection and patent, which is legally "stronger" protection of the UPOV Convention. Newspapers unified European patent law is that, to the patent protected plant varieties will no longer called. exemption breeder. Specifically, under the new EU patent package, if a new variety contains the portion of the original patented invention (ie. The variety) other breeders, for their commercial Г¶verlida license will be needed, ie. paying royalties!
