answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/11/2016 answer text <p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p> </p><p>There is no EU patent, so patents can only be granted with effect for individual states, either by applying directly to the relevant national office, or through the European Patent Office, which is not an EU body. These will therefore not be affected by the UK leaving the EU. Patents owned by UK businesses with effect for the UK will continue to be governed by national law.</p><p> </p><p>In contrast, the EU trade mark is a unitary right with effect for the whole of the EU. When the UK leaves the European Union, EU trade marks will still be available to UK business and existing EU trade marks will continue to offer protection in other Member States. We are consulting businesses and actively considering how existing EU trade marks can continue to provide protection in the UK.</p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member constituency Orpington answering member printed Joseph Johnson question first answered 07/11/2016 17:44:37 answering member 4039 label Biography information for Lord Johnson of Marylebone
