challenge them;

• staff our enquiry points from 09:00 to 17:00

Supplementary Protection Certificates for Medicinal 

Products and Plant Protection Products 

Council Regulation (EEC) No. 1768/92 sets out the conditions relating to applications for and 

the grant of a supplementary protection certificate for a medicinal product. Such a 

certificate, when granted, extends the protection afforded by the basic patent in respect of 

the product covered by it for a period of not more than five years from the date when it takes 

effect. This regulation took effect on 2 January 1993. 

Regulation (EC) No 1610/96 of the European Parliament and of the Council, sets out the 

corresponding conditions relating to an application for and the grant of a supplementary 

protection certificate for a plant protection product. A certificate for a plant protection 

product granted under this regulation extends protection to such a product in a similar way 

to that of a medicinal product. This regulation took effect on 8 February 1997. 

The Patents (Supplementary Protection Certificate for Plant Protection Products) 

Regulations (SI No 1996/3120) entered into force in part on 2 January 1997 to empower the 

Secretary of State to make rules under the Patents Act 1977 for the purposes of such 

certificates. Accordingly, the Patents (Supplementary Protection Certificates) Rules 1997 

(SI No 1997/64) entered into force on 8 February 1997. This instrument comprises the Rules 

for a consolidated procedure governing certificates for both medicinal and plant protection 

products as well as the corresponding regulations and forms. 

Copies of SI No 1997/64 may be obtained from The Patent Office (Sales), Concept House, 

Cardiff Road, Newport, South Wales NP10 8QQ; from the London Front Office, 

Harmsworth House, 13-15 Bouverie Street, London, EC4Y 8DP; and from any branch of The

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.

3 December 2003 Patents and Designs Journal No. 5976 xv 


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.

+44(0)1633 813651 

Fax (Deposit Account Holders and payments by credit and debit card only): 

+44(0)1633 814444 

Copies can also be obtained in person from the Patent Office, London Front Office, 

Harmsworth House, 13-15 Bouverie Street, London, EC4Y 8DP. 

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. 

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

xviii Patents and Designs Journal No. 5976 3 December 2003 


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 

Tel: +44(0)1633 814414

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.

25 H3-5 

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.

3 December 2003 Patents and Designs Journal No. 5976 xix 


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 2003 certain parts of the Key were republished and those parts of the Key 

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

operative from 1 January 2003 and will apply to published applications numbered from 

2377151 published under 1977 Act. 

In addition, the Documentation Records pamphlets was republished on 1 January 2003. 

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. 

Catchwords Indexes 

A “Catchwords Index to the Classification Key” which costs £9 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.

xx Patents and Designs Journal No. 5976 3 December 2003 


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 T for specifications published up to the ends of 1997 to 2002 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. 

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.

3 December 2003 Patents and Designs Journal No. 5976 xxi 


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 WO1989/000001 

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 WO1989/000001, 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. 

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 WO1987/002999 were 

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

published from EP0220000 and WO1987/003000 and up to EP0285000 and WO1989/ 

000001 respectively attracted only terms CAA or CAB from heading C2C.

xxii Patents and Designs Journal No. 5976 3 December 2003 


From EPO285000 and WO1989/000001, 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 WO1989/000001:

Manual of Patent Practice (Fifth Edition) 

The fifth edition of the Manual of Patent Practice in the UK Patent Office is now available 

for purchase at a price of £170 including binder and post and packaging within the UK. The 

price for buyers outside the UK will be £180 for the rest of Europe and £190 for elsewhere, 

reflecting the higher postage costs. The fifth edition of the Manual can also be accessed 

through the Patent Office website. 

The fifth edition explains the Editor’s view of current practice in the Patent Office under the 

Patents Act 1977 as amended by subsequent legislation, and takes account of changes in 

the law, judicial decisions and practice up to and including 31 May 2003. The fifth edition 

contains extensive changes from the fourth edition published in December 1998, and last 

updated in December 1999. Some sections have been substantially rewritten, including 

those discussing patentability issues related to computer-implemented inventions, the 

implementation into UK law of European Directive 98/44/EC on the legal protection of 

biotechnological inventions, and those where directions have been made following the 

coming into force on 1 April 2003 of the Patents Act 1977 (Electronic Communications) 

Order 2003 for delivery of documents by electronic communications to the Patent Office. 

The increase in price from the fourth edition is the first price rise since publication of the 

third edition in December 1994, and reflects higher editorial and production costs. 

The format of the Manual follows that of the Patents Act 1977, those sections of the 

Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 relevant to patents, relevant Official Notices and 

Directions from the Patents and Designs Journal, and the articles of the Supplementary 

Protection Certificate Regulations relating to medicinal and to plant products. Each quoted 

provision of the Acts and Regulations precedes a commentary on that provision.

Applications for Patents Filed 

Application Number Range 

GB0325010.7 - GB0325595.7 

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 

GB2389024 - GB2389294 

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 £2.86 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 applicants and 

inventors for the applications the publication of which is announced 

in this issue of the Journal. The entry under the name of the 

applicant sets out the details of the application including the name 

of any inventor who is not also an applicant. Where an inventor is 

also an applicant, the name appears in the index only as an 

applicant. Where there are joint applicants, details of the application 

are given only for the entry under the name of a first applicant, the 

entries under the names of the other applicants being cross 

referenced to the entry for the first applicant. Where an inventor is 

not also an applicant, the entry under the name of the inventor is 

cross referenced to the entry of the applicant, or the first applicant 

in the case of joint applicants. 

Each entry under the name of the (or the first) applicant provides 

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

country of incorporation; the names of inventors who are not also 

applicants; the UK Classification Headings accorded to the

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.

European Patents designating the United Kingdom as a 

Contracting State, for which a translation of claims has been filed 

under Section 78(7).

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.

Following a request under Rule 110(4) of the Rules 1995 to 

extend the period for filing a translation of the specification, a 

translation has now been filed in accordance with Section 

77(6)(a). 

This patent was announced as void in the Patents and Designs 

Journal dated 11.12.2002. The patent is now reinstated with a 

grant effective in the UK of 12.06.2002.


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.
