As set out in the technical notice, the Government\u2019s primary goal is to ensure that the UK patent system continues to function effectively in the event of a no deal exit. This requires a small amount of legislative change. In February 2019, Parliament approved the Patents (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019<\/a>, which corrected deficiencies in retained EU law relating to patents. The Government has since published guidance for business<\/a> on these changes. It continues to engage with stakeholders on the impacts of exit and preparation for a no deal scenario.<\/p> <\/p> A further statutory instrument is required to address inoperabilities in a new piece of patents-related EU legislation which entered into force earlier this month. A public call for views<\/a> on the drafting of this instrument opened on 5 July 2019.<\/p>"}
