Other useful information
The Austrian Federal Law on the Protection of Plant Varieties (Variety Protection Law)
entered into force on March 1, 1993.
The Transitional Provision of this law said, that varieties which, on the day of entry into
force of this Federal Law, were entered in the Breeding Book for Cultivated Plants
(Zuchtbuch für Kulturpflanzen) as „Hochzucht“, should be entered ex officio in the Variety
Protection Register two months after entry into force of this Federal Law. So the Variety
Protection Office listed 172 varieties in the Protection Register as of May 1, 1993.
In this case it did not matter if the varieties which were entered in the Protection Register
belonged to the list of species for which protection was available and for these registered
varieties no requirement of novelty was necessary.
Therefore we have no dates for items (Date of proposal and denomination proposed)
(Date of publication and denomination published). See field (Remarks)
