answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/11/2018 answer text <p>The Government set out its position on the future economic relationship with the EU, including on intellectual property and the cross-border provision of legal services, in the White Paper published on 12 July 2018. The final outcome is subject to future negotiations with the European Union.</p><p>In the meantime, we have agreed withdrawal provisions with the EU that cover intellectual property and provide right holders and intellectual property practitioners with legal certainty. In particular, the Government will provide holders of EU trade marks and designs with equivalent UK rights so that they do not experience any loss of protection in the UK after the end of the implementation period. These rights will be provided automatically and for free.</p><p>Further, we are working with the EU to ensure that the Withdrawal Agreement contains appropriate provisions for intellectual property practitioners in pending proceedings before the EU Intellectual Property Office at the end of the implementation period. We have made excellent progress across the Withdrawal Agreement and are close to concluding an agreement setting out the terms of the UK’s exit from the European Union.</p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member printed Lord Callanan question first answered 05/11/2018 15:12:02 answering member 4336 label Biography information for Lord Callanan

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/11/2018 answer text <p>The Government is seeking to provide continuity and certainty as the UK leaves the EU. To this end, we have introduced the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 to ensure that UK law continues to work after the UK leaves the EU, whatever the outcome of negotiations. It does this by transferring EU law into UK law, preserving the effect of existing law where possible and appropriate.</p><p>The Directive on the Legal Protection of Computer Programs, including its provisions on the resale of software, has already been implemented into UK law and will therefore be retained in UK law after the UK leaves the EU, subject to any amendments necessary to ensure it functions appropriately once the UK has withdrawn from the EU.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Daventry answering member printed Chris Heaton-Harris question first answered 08/11/2018 16:12:26 answering member 3977 label Biography information for Chris Heaton-Harris
