HC Deb 26 February 1901 vol 89 c1179
SIR JOHN BRUNNER (Cheshire, Northwich)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether British patent rights now extend to the Transvaal and the Orange River Colony.

MR. J. CHAMBERLAIN

No alteration has at present been made in the Patent Laws of the late Republics.
