EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Instrument and does not purport to be a legal interpretation).

These amendments to the Patent Rules 1992 align the Patent Rules with the European Economic Agreement (EEA) for the purposes of registering an Address for Service from EEA countries and to allow EEA patent agents to represent patent applications in this country. In addition, this instrument amends the Patents Office Form 1 (Request for the Grant of a Patent), to allow applicants communicate with the Patents Office by e-mail, with extra sheets for supplementary information relating to additional applicants and inventors also included in the form.
