Filing of documents by facsimile transmission 

The UK Patent Office operates a facility for the filing of documents by facsimile 

transmission. This notice updates the operational arrangements for such filings and 

supersedes all previous notices. 

Basic features 

1. Any document which can be filed by post or by hand may also be filed by fax. 

However, each facsimile transmitted document must be legible and the responsibility 

for ensuring legibility rests with the sender. If upon subsequent examination (see 

paragraph 11) it transpires that any part of the document received is unintelligible, no 

filing date will be accorded to that part. Design, trade mark or other applications 

which incorporate photographic or other forms of representation may involve a 

particular risk and customers will need to bear this in mind. 

2. Customers may fax both fee-bearing and non-fee-bearing documents, but where a 

fee is payable for a document at the time of filing, the customer must have a deposit 

account with adequate funds in it in order to secure a filing date (see paragraphs 8- 

10). Where charges against a deposit account arise customers should include a fee 

sheet with their faxed submission, clearly indicating their account number and any 

reference they would like to appear on the fee sheet acknowledgement. 

3. The facsimile transmission number for this service is +44(0)1633 814444. 

Customers should not fax documents to be filed in connection with a patent, design 

or trade mark application to any other number in the Office unless specifically 

instructed otherwise. 

4. The facsimile machines of the Patent Office are open to receive transmissions on a 

continuous basis (24 hours a day and seven days a week) and the time and date of 

receipt of the documents is recorded automatically. 

5. Some documents require duplicate copies to be submitted and other formal 

presentation requirements to be met. Customers filing by fax should, however only 

fax one set of documents and except as detailed in paragraph 6 below, should not 

submit the original or additional copies of the document transmitted by fax unless 

and until requested to do so by the Patent Office. 

Restricted requirement for confirmatory hard copies 

6. Confirmation copies should only be sent automatically in the following cases: 

evidence (whether affidavit, witness statement or statutory declaration), 

patent applications filed with an accompanying search request (Patent Form 9/77), 

PCT applications, and 

translations of granted European Patents designating the UK. 

Confirmatory copies should be prominently marked “In confirmation of fax”. 

7. In cases other than those listed in paragraph 6, confirmatory copies should not be 

sent but may exceptionally be requested by the Office eg if there is a problem with 

the clarity/completeness of the faxed document received. 

Filing dates 

8. The filing date accorded is the date of receipt of the complete fax if the office is open 

for the class of documents, or if not, the next working day. 

9. Where a fee is due for a transaction at the time of filing, the filing date will be as in 

paragraph 8 above, or the date on which sufficient funds are available in the deposit 

account (see paragraph 10) or the fee is otherwise paid, whichever is the later.

28 August 2002 Patents and Designs Journal No. 5910 vii 


10. With the exception of trade mark applications, UK legislation does not allow the 

Patent Office to accord a filing date to a document unless we receive any associated 

fees at the same time. To help them meet this requirement, customers may open 

and fund a deposit account with the Patent office against which we will charge the 

appropriate fees. Deposit account terms and conditions are available on request. 

Fax-back Service 

11. Documents filed by fax to the number given in paragraph 3 are checked, upon receipt, 

for legibility and to ensure that the number of pages specified on the fax header is the 

number received. No appraisal is made of them until they are examined in the normal 

course of business. 

12. Facsimile machines will generally tell the sender whether the transmission has been 

completed; but transmission may involve a risk and the customer may want 

assurance that the documents received by the Patent Office are correct and legible. 

13. With this in mind, we offer to deposit account holders a fax-back service of the entire 

transmission to any destination in the UK, for a charge of ££25 per transmission. Faxback 

to locations outside the UK can also be provided by prior arrangement. 

Customers requiring the fax-back service must indicate on the fee sheet and 

authorise the charge to the deposit account. 

14. The fax-back service is available for documents filed by fax to the number given in 

paragraph 3 from Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays) between 9.00 and 

21.00 (UK time). Transmissions received outside these hours will be faxed back as 

soon as the Patent Office re-opens for business. With this proviso, the Office will 

endeavour to fax back within 30 minutes of receipt. 

Caveat 

15. Customers should note that the facsimile services do not offer an infallible means of 

transmission. Interception of data, or misdirection due to operator or technical error is 

possible. Documents which the customer believes might include information of 

relevance to national defence and security must not be filed by fax; and others are 

faxed at the customer‘s risk, although every effort will of course be made to ensure 

an efficient and accurate service.

Filing of Patents and Registered Designs Documents by 

Post 

Anything sent to the Patent Office under UK patents and registered designs law 1 by posting 

in the United Kingdom is deemed to have been filed when it would have been delivered in 

the ordinary course of post. In practice, this has generally meant that patents and registered 

designs documents sent through the Royal Mail could, if delayed, be given a filing date 

before their actual date of receipt. Supporting evidence is called for in some cases before 

the earlier date is granted. 

Schedule 8 of the Postal Services Act 2000, which came into force on 26 March 2001, 

makes clear that the use of the terms “post”, “registered post”, “recorded delivery”, and 

“first class post” in legislation cannot be limited only to services provided by what it calls 

“the Post Office company”. As a result, the Patent Office now recognises as “post” any 

items delivered to it by any commercial service which undertakes to deliver mail in 

exchange for a fee. It follows that patents and registered designs documents sent by such 

commercial services can, if delayed, be deemed to have been filed before the actual date 

of receipt. 

Enquiries about this notice, and requests for documents to be given a filing date earlier 

than the actual date of receipt, should be directed to Kerry Collings at the Patent Office

Classification Information 

Classification Key 

The UK Classification Key is currently used to classify and, where appropriate, to index all 

published UK specifications. 

In addition selected published European (EP), Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) applications 

and US specifications have, in the past, been classified. Details of classification of non-UK 

documents on the UK Key are given at the end of this notice. 

The Classification Key sets out the Patent Office’s system of classification by means of over 

400 headings with detailed sub-classifying and indexing by coded terms within the 

headings. There are altogether about 78000 of these terms. The headings are arranged to 

form 40 divisions. One or more divisions are published as Units of the Classification Key, as 

shown below, at £12.50 per unit. The cost of a complete key is £300.

One further heading, U1S, falling outside the divisional structure, is provided for indexing 

significant uses, applications and utilities disclosed in connection with inventions classified 

in one or more of the above headings. 

In addition, the divisional structure above includes three headings used purely for indexing 

purposes, viz heading C6Y, Indexing Schedule for micro-organism information (used for 

recording new micro-organisms, and micro-organisms used in chemical, biochemical or 

microbiological processes), heading C3W, Indexing Schedule for polymer information (used 

for recording polymer information in documents classified in certain other C3 headings) and 

H3T, Indexing Schedule for amplifiers, oscillators, pulse logic and switching circuits (used in 

headings H3F, H3P or H3W). 

Three free pamphlets, which are supplied to each purchaser of one or more key units are 

available, namely: 

1. “Structure of the Classification Key”, listing the headings grouped under each of the 40 

divisions. 

2. “Notes on the Use of the Classification Key” 

3. “Heading U1S Universal Indexing Schedules for use, Application, Utility and Property” 

A “Concordance between the UK Key and the IPC” and a “Documentation Records” 

pamphlet are also available. These are supplied free of charge to each purchaser of a 

complete Key or can be purchased separately at a cost of £8 per copy. 

The Key is revised at intervals to incorporate changes in classification. Previously each 

edition related to a range of 50000 specifications or less. Now each edition is related to 

calendar dates. 

On 1 January 2002 certain parts of the Key were republished and the parts of the Key 

together with unamended parts of Edition S collectively constitute Edition T. Edition T is 

operative from 1 January 2002 and will apply to published applications numbered from 

2363560 published under 1977 Act. 

In addition, the Documentation Records pamphlets was republished on 1 January 2002. 

The republished parts of the key together with the amended Documentation Records 

pamphlets is available at a cost of £15. 

Prior to Specification GB0940001 a different classification structure, having many more 

headings within 146 classes, was in use. A concordance showing the relationship between 

this previous classification structure and that which superseded it is obtainable free of 

charge from Sales.

28 August 2002 Patents and Designs Journal No. 5910 xv 


Catchwords Indexes 

A “Catchwords Index to the Classification Key” which costs £8 per copy is available to 

assist searchers to decide where the subject matter in which they are interested is likely to 

be found among the Headings of the Key. This Index consists of an alphabetical list of so 

called ‘catchwords’ identifying subjects in which invention is likely to occur. The Index is 

currently being updated and a revised version will be published later in the year. 

A “Catchwords Index to Heading U1S” is also available at a cost of £6 per copy. 

Divisional/Heading Allotment Index 

A Divisional/Heading Allotment Index is available showing the Classification Key Division(s) 

allocated to each specification published under the Patents Act 1949 and the Classification 

Key Heading(s) allocated to each application published under the Patents Act 1977. 

Subject-Matter File Lists 

Each file list is a tabulation of the serial numbers of all specifications which have been 

allotted a selected classifying or indexing code or a logical combination of codes, and thus 

provides a ready means of identifying specifications disclosing particular subject-matter. The 

codes selected must normally be those in the current edition of the Classification Key, with 

the exception of Series A list as explained below. However codes from earlier editions of 

the Key may be used to produce file lists as follows: 

i) Editions 1500 and A to I for specifications published up to the ends of 1978 to 1987 

respectively; 

ii) Edition J for specifications published up to 31 May 1990; 

iii) Editions K to N for specifications published up to the ends of 1992 to 1995 respectively; 

iv) Edition O to Q for specifications published up to the ends of 1997 to 1999 respectively. 

Series A covers all specifications from year 1911 up to serial No 1000000 (ie, 1911 to July 

1965 only) and the codes specified must be those in the edition of the 

Classification Key for the series 960001 to 1000000. Price £6.00 (plus VAT) per 

list. 

Series C For any single code. Price £30 (plus VAT) per list. 

Series D For any combination of codes generally all taken from one Heading. Price £30 

(plus VAT) per list. 

The range of specification numbers covered by Series C and D File Lists depends upon the 

Heading (or Part-Heading) concerned and the extent of backlogging following relevant 

revisions of the Classification key; this is because it has not always been necessary or 

efficient to backlog a new revision fully. Appropriate details are given in the Documentation 

Record of Each Heading (or Part-Heading), including information on how to retrieve relevant 

patent documents by series C or D file Lists as far back as the computer records go, using 

earlier editions of the Key if appropriate. 

In addition, as stated above, Series A File Lists are also available, and may need to be 

ordered if all relevant specifications below 1000001 are required to be retrieved, as the 

Series C and D File Lists do not necessarily contain all relevant specifications published 

before number 1000001. Further information may be obtained from Classification and 

Documentation Division or the Search and Advisory Service.

xvi Patents and Designs Journal No. 5910 28 August 2002 


In Headings where recent classification work has been carried out the information given in 

the Documentation record of the Heading may not be up to date. In such cases 

Classification and Documentation Division should be consulted for the latest situation. 

Each file list is produced to fulfil a specific order, however a set of the Series A File Lists is 

available for reference in the British Library. 

It will be appreciated if any instance of incorrect classification or indexing is brought to the 

notice of Classification and Documentation Division. 

The practice of classifying and indexing all published EP and PCT applications on the UK 

Classification Key ceased from specifications numbered EP 0285000 and WO 89/00001 

onwards and therefore, subject to certain exceptions set out below, EP and PCT 

applications published from these numbers will not appear on subject-matter file lists based 

on the provisions of the UK Key. 

Classification Manual 

A Manual is available which explains in detail the system used for Heading C2C. It also 

contains notes and examples on both indexing and searching and will thus be found helpful 

by all those using this heading for Search purposes, especially be way of Series C and D file 

lists. 

Heading C2C, Organic Compounds: 

Manual for the Computer Retrieval System “Organic Compounds” C2C. 

The latest edition of the C2C Manual which replaced the 1974 edition and its 

supplements was published to coincide with Edition I of the Classification Key. Copies 

are available from Sales price £25.00. 

This Manual is used in the UK Patent Office for all searches within the field of organic 

chemistry corresponding to Heading “C2C - Organic compounds” of the UK 

Classification Key, and was developed by the co-operative effort of some 30 

examiners and analysts. It first became operative in April 1974 with the exception of a 

few classifying and indexing terms which became operative later. 

Since 1974 there have been a number of changes to, or affecting the system. The 

major changes are summarized in Appendix F of the latest edition. 

UK Classification of UK, EP and PCT Patent Specifications 

Computer prints giving the UK classification allotted to UK specifications and to EP and PCT 

patent specifications classified on the UK Key are available at a price of £5.25 per 

specification. 

The classification given will reflect any reclassification that has taken place. 

Requests for these prints should be made through the Patent Office (Sales). 

Classification on non-UK documents on the UK Key 

Prior to EP0285000 and WO89/00001, all EP and PCT published applications, with the 

exception of applications relating to organic structures and certain syntheses falling within 

the scope of heading C2C, Organic compounds, were classified according to the UK Key.

28 August 2002 Patents and Designs Journal No. 5910 xvii 


In the case of organic structures and certain syntheses falling within the scope of heading, 

C2C, EP and PCT applications published up to EP0219999 and WO87/02999 were classified 

with all the appropriate term/s from heading C2C. EP and PCT applications published from 

EP0220000 and WO87/03000 and up to EP0285000 and WO89/00001 respectively 

attracted only terms CAA or CAB from heading C2C. 

From EPO285000 and WO89/00001, only selected EP and PCT published applications 

relating to particular subject matter areas have been classified according to the UK Key. The 

headings or part headings of the UK Key in which these selected applications have been 

classified are listed below together with the serial numbers from which classification in 

certain of the headings has been discontinued. 

Those headings identified by an * are those in which selected US patent documents have 

been classified on the UK Key. It should be noted that only a limited number of US 

documents have been classified in the headings indicated and therefore subject-matter file 

lists based on the provisions of the UK Key will be substantially incomplete for US 

documents. 

UK Key Headings in which non-UK documents continued to be classified for a limited 

period after EP0285000 and WO89/00001:

NB - The term “specification” as used in this notice means UK Patent Specifications unless the text clearly indicates otherwise. 

National Security 

Attention is drawn to the provisions of section 23 of the Patents Act 1977 which provides 

that no application for a patent for ANY invention may be made abroad by a person resident 

in the United Kingdom, without permission from the comptroller, unless application for a 

patent for the same invention has first been made in the United Kingdom, and six weeks 

have elapsed from the date of such application and no directions prohibiting publication or 

communication have been given or all such directions have been cancelled. Requests for 

permission from the comptroller to make an application abroad should be made even if for 

example such an application is required by contract with a foreign firm. Requests will be 

facilitated by explicitly addressing them “For attention in Room G.R70”. 

Normally the written authority required by section 23 will be posted from Newport on the 

same day that the request is received. If this degree of urgency does not suffice a 

telephone enquiry should first be made to +44(0)1633 813558.

The Joint Examination Board 

Notice to Candidates 

It has become common practice in recent years for candidates to number the pages of 

their answers after the end of the examination. This practice is in breach of the 

instructions given to candidates on the front of the question paper in each examination. 

For the avoidance of doubt, candidates are reminded that NO WRITING WHATSOEVER is 

permitted after the examination has been stopped by the invigilator, whether to add to the 

answer or to number pages. Candidates are given a five minute warning before the end of 

the examination to permit numbering of pages if this has not been done in the course of 

writing the answer itself. The instructions to candidates which appear on the front of the 

Board’s examination papers will be revised to make sure that they are unambiguous on this 

point.

Patent and trade mark decisions - case summaries on the 

Patent Office website 

The Patent Office is aware that access to its patent and trade mark decisions via the 

search facility on our website can prove difficult for customers at times. For example, a 

search can result in a host of hits some of which are not relevant, as the search facility 

does not confine itself to decisions but searches the whole of our website. 

To enable better access to our decisions, a separately searchable database of case 

summaries for most patent decisions and key trade mark decisions is now available. 

The new patent facility can be accessed via a link from the Patent Law and Legal Decisions 

Index Page (www.patent.gov.uk/patent/legal/index.htm). The link is situated after Patent 

Legal Decisions. 

The trade mark facility can be accessed via a link from the Trade Marks Law, Legal 

Decisions and Hearings Index Page (www.patent.gov.uk/tm/legal/index.htm). The link is 

situated after the Trade Marks Legal Decisions and before the Inter Partes Hearings 

Booking Form. 

The summaries include such details as the names of the parties, the decision result, the 

name of the Hearing Officer, details of any related decisions, images where applicable and 

a summary of the key facts. Users will be able to link from the case summary to the full 

text version of the decision where it is available.

Arrangements for Advertising Proposed Amendments to 


1 A new Part 63 of the Civil Procedure Rules is being drafted to cover all intellectual 

property claims. At a meeting of the drafting sub-committee on July 12 some proposals 

were put forward on which we would like views. One proposal relates to the mechanism 

for advertising applications to amend patents, the second to the form of the advertisement. 

The proposals relate to applications under Section 75 before the comptroller or the courts, 

and to applications under section 27 before the comptroller. It would be helpful if you could 

let me have any comments by 6 September 2002. 

2 Mr Justice Jacob is also consulting on these points through the Patents Court Users’ 

Committee. If you are responding through that forum, there is no need to respond to me 

as well.

28 August 2002 Patents and Designs Journal No. 5910 xxi 


Mechanism for advertising applications to amend patents 

3 Applications to amend patents under section 27 or 75 of the Patents Act 1977 are 

advertised in the Journal. Although the publication cycle for the Journal has been reduced 

to only three weeks (plus a few days for preparing the advertisement for the Journal), this 

still introduces an inevitable 3-4 week delay into all section 75 and section 27 proceedings 

before the advertisement even appears. The Patents Court and the comptroller are anxious 

to eliminate this delay, especially as in practice it is rare in section 75 proceedings for the 

amendments to be opposed by anyone who is not already a party to the proceedings (and 

an existing party, of course, is not reliant on the advertisement). Indeed, even in section 27 

proceedings opponents have normally already been in discussion with the patentee and are 

therefore monitoring the patent closely anyway. 

4 We could reduce the delay if we stopped placing the advertisement in the printed copy 

of the Journal and instead placed it only on our web site. What we envisage is a special 

page for such amendments on the web site which would be updated once a week in 

synchronism with the publication of the Journal. The paper copy of the Journal would not 

contain the amendments, but instead there would be a standard notice “for s27/75 

amendments, please see the web site [URL to be specified]”. Those who currently monitor 

the Journal electronically by looking at the copy posted on the web site would not be 

inconvenienced, and indeed may actually find it helpful to have amendments on a separate 

page. We recognise that those who currently monitor the paper copy of the Journal and 

who are interested in applications to amend would have to look on the web site too, but this 

minor inconvenience appears outweighed by the potential gains in timeliness from adopting 

the proposed procedure. 

5 If we decided to do this, we would have to consider whether changes would be 

required to Patents Rules 40(1), 78(1) and 115 which cover the advertisement of 

amendments arising in proceedings before the comptroller and the publication of our 

Journal. 

Form of advertisement 

6 Preparing these advertisements is an extra task for the patentee if they arise in court 

proceedings. It is also time-consuming for our Litigation Section, whether the proceedings 

are before the court or the comptroller, because all the amendments have to be retyped into 

a suitable standard format. Further, because of the nature of the advertisements the 

retyping process is prone to error, correction necessitating re-advertisement and 

concomitant further delays. 

7 We could make things simpler, whilst at the same time speeding up the process and 

reducing the risk of error, by not publishing the amendments in detail. Instead, we could 

simply publish a notice that an application to amend had been made and that full details can 

be obtained from our Litigation Section. Attached is an example of the sort of notice we 

have in mind. There would, of course, be similar entries on the website for applications 

under section 75 in proceedings before the comptroller and applications under section 27.

xxii Patents and Designs Journal No. 5910 28 August 2002 


We would not have to retype the amendments, and in the event of a third party wanting to 

see them, we would simply post or fax a copy of the amendments (or, in court proceedings, 

the application notice) by return. This would also be better for third parties in the case of 

court proceedings as they would receive the grounds for amendment as well.

Applications for Patents Filed 

Application Number Range 

GB0216491.1 - GB0217078.5 

This index sets out details of applications for patents filed in the 

application number range given above. The entries are arranged in 

alphabetical order according to the applicant’s name. Where there 

are joint applicants, then the entry under the name of the first 

applicant sets out details of the application, including the names of 

the other applicants. The entries under the names of the other 

applicants are cross referenced to the entry for the first applicant. 

Each entry in the index under the name of the (or the first) 

applicant provides the following information: the name(s) of the 

applicant(s); the title of the invention; the filing date of the 

application; any priority details; and the application number allotted 

to the application. 

Where an application is requesting an early date under Section 8, 

12,15(4), or 37 of the Act, then the filing date of the earlier 

application is included (see example 2). Where an application is 

derived from an application under the Patent Cooperation Treaty or 

is converted from a European Patent Application, then the 

application number, the publication number, and the date of filing 

of the PCT or EP application are included (see example 3). 

The application number includes, at its end, a check digit. The full 

application number, including the check digit, should be quoted in 

all correspondence concerning proceedings in respect of an 

application up to the grant of a patent. When the application is 

published under Section 16(1) of the Act, it will be accorded to a 

seven-figure serial number. This should be used only when seeking 

to identify printed copies of the specification and its abstract and to 

make enquiries concerning entries in the Register of Patents. 

These applications will not be available to the public for inspection 

or purchase until the date of publication under Section 16(1) of the 

Act. This date will be advertised in a subsequent issue of this 

Journal.

Subject-Matter Index 

GB2372422 - GB2372685 

This index sets out details of applications in the above number 

range which are published under Section 16(1) as from the date of 

publication of this issue of the Journal. Printed copies of the 

applications, together with the front pages containing their abstracts 

and bibliographic and classification data, and copies of search 

report under section 17, are now available at £2.67 per copy 

(including postage) from The Patent Office (Sales), Concept 

House, Cardiff Road, Newport, South Wales NP10 8QQ. These 

items are also available, but for a limited period only, to personal 

callers at Harmsworth House, 13-15 Bouverie Street, London 

EC4Y 8DP. 

The index also includes applications in the above number range 

derived from applications under the Patent Cooperation Treaty 

(PCT) which have entered the UK national phase. Printed copies 

of the front page of these applications are similarly available 

together with English translations of those applications published 

under the PCT in a language other than English. 

Each entry in the index provides the following information: the 

publication number; the application number; the date on which the 

application was filed at the Office; the name(s) of the applicant(s) 

and the country of incorporation; the abstract title; any priority 

details; the United Kingdom Classification Heading(s) assigned to 

the application; and the International Patent Classification assigned 

to the application. 


12, 15(4), or 37 of the Act, then the application number and the 

date of filing of the earlier application are included (see example 2). 

Where an application is derived from an application under the 

Patent Cooperation Treaty or is converted from a European Patent 

application, then the application number, the date of filing, the 

publication number and the date of publication of the PCT or EP 

application are included (see example 3). 

In the index, the entries are grouped in ascending publication 

number order according to the UK Classification Headings. The 

UK Heading is given at the beginning of each group. Where an 

application has been classified in a supplementary (or secondary) 

Heading, then the entry under the primary Heading includes details 

of the application and the entry under the supplementary Heading 

is in the form of a cross reference to the primary Heading (see 

example 4). 

The publication number is the seven figure number given to an 

application when it is published and by which it will be recorded on 

the Register of Patents. Printed copies of each application will also 

be identified by the publication number, followed by the document 

type “A”. This identification should be quoted in full when 

ordering copies. However, for all proceedings up to grant of a 

patent, the application number originally assigned should be used. 

There follows four examples of entries for this index. The first 

does not include any information on priorities, earlier applications, 

or PCT or EP applications. The second and third include priority 

information. In addition, the second includes information carried

fourth example shows an entry under a supplementary Heading.

Name Index 

This index lists, in alphabetical order, the names of proprietors 

and inventors for patents whose grant is announced in this issue of 

the Journal. The entry under the name of the proprietor sets out the 

details of the patent including the name of any inventor who is not 

also a proprietor. Where an inventor is also a proprietor, the name 

appears in the index only as a proprietor. Where there are joint 

proprietors, details of the patent are given only for the entry under 

the name of a first proprietor, the entries under the names of the 

other proprietors being cross referenced to the entry for the first 

proprietor. Where an inventor is not also a proprietor, then the 

entry under the name of the inventor is cross referenced to the entry 

for the proprietor, or the first proprietor in the case of joint 

proprietors. 

Each entry under the name of the (or the first) proprietor 

provides the following information: the name(s) of the 

proprietor(s); the country of incorporation; the names of inventors 

who are not also proprietors; the UK Classification Headings 

accorded to the patent; and the publication number of the patent. 

There follows three examples of entries in this index. The first 

example illustrates the case where there is a single proprietor who is 

also the inventor. The second example illustrates the case where 

there is a single proprietor and an inventor who is not also a 

proprietor, and includes the entry for the inventor. The third 

example illustrates the case where there are joint proprietors and a n 

inventor who is not also a proprietor, and includes the entries for 

the other proprietors and the inventor.

Errata 

The entry for EP 0880656 published in Patents and Designs 

Journal 5766 on 10 November1999 was made in error. 

Translations filed: Corrected Translations 

of European Patents 

The entry for EP 0937252 published in Patents and Designs 

Journal 5815 on 25 October 2000 was made in error. The correct 

entry should have appeared under Translations filed: Claims of 

European Applications and is published correctly in this journal


European Patents void 

This index lists European Patents designating the United 

Kingdom as a Contracting State, which were published in French 

or German and for which an English translation has not been filed 

within the period prescribed by the Patents Rules. In accordance 

with Section 77(7), they are therefore treated as always having 

been void. The patents are listed in ascending publication number 

order. Against each publication number is the corresponding 

application number and the date of the European Bulletin in 

which grant by the EPO was announced.

Proceedings under EC Regulations 1768/92 and 1610/96 

(Supplementary Protection Certificates for Medicinal 

Products and Plant Protection Products, respectively) 

These entries include details of all proceedings relating to 

Supplementary Protection Certificates. Applications for 

Supplementary Protection Certificates are numbered in a single 

yearly sequence commencing SPC/GB93/001 covering both 

medicinal and plant protection products and the same number is 

retained for the granted certificate. Proceedings are open to public 

inspection but the granted certificate is not separately published. 

The entries are grouped in categories according to the type of 

proceedings. Within each category the entries are arranged in 

alphabetical order according to the name of the applicant for, or 

holder of, the certificate and provide the following information; 

the name and address of the applicant or holder; the product in 

respect of which the certificate has been applied for or granted; the 

product type; ie. “Medicinal” or “Plant Protection”; the number 

and date of the first authorisation under Directive 65/65/EEC or 

Directive 81/851/EEC to place the product on the market as a 

medicinal product in the United Kingdom or the number and date 

of the first authorisation under Article 4 of Directive 91/414/EEC 

or an equivalent provision of national law to place the product on 

the market as a plant protection product in the United Kingdom; 

where relevant, the country; number and date of the first 

authorisation to place the product on the market in the European 

Community; the number and title of the basic UK patent or 

European patent (UK) which protects the product; and the 

number of the application or certificate. 

The entries will also state as appropriate: the filing date of the 

application; the date of grant or rejection of the application; the 

maximum period of the granted certificate; the effective period of 

the certificate on entry into force; and the date of lapse or 

invalidity of the certificate. 

There follows three examples of entries under these proceedings. 

The first relates to a new application for a certificate based on a 

European patent designating the United Kingdom and having first 

authorisation of the product in the United Kingdom. The second 

example relates to a certificate granted based, once again, on a 

European patent designating the United Kingdom but with the 

first product authorisation in the EEC in Denmark. The third 

refers to a certificate entering into force based on a United 

Kingdom patent with first product authorisation in the EEC in 

Belgium.
