Consultation on Proposed Legislation Changes Put on Hold


IP Australia informed on its website that the recent consultation on the Exposure Draft Intellectual Property Laws Amendment Bill 2017 and Regulations has been put on hold until after the Government has finalised its response to the Productivity Commission’s report into Australia’s intellectual property arrangements. This is because if any legislative amendments are required as a result of the Government’s response, two intellectual property Bills might be in Parliament at the same time, leading to great complexity and uncertainty.
