<p>The Government is currently holding a United Kingdom-wide consultation on introducing
regulations for standardised packaging of tobacco products, which was published on
26 June. The consultation will run for six weeks and conclude on 7 August and we are
seeking any new and relevant information that may help in assessing the wider impact
of standardised packaging, including any views on the potential impact on intellectual
property. We would encourage anyone with an interest in standardised packaging to
respond to the consultation, including responding with any information or evidence
relevant to the intellectual property implications of standardised tobacco packaging
and its potential effect on the Exchequer.</p>
