("Eighty-two.—After the word 'Act,' where that word first occurs, there shall be inserted the words 'or by the Trade Marks Act, 1938'; for the words 'under this Act,' where those words first occur, there shall be substituted the word 'thereunder'; and after the words 'under this Act,' where those words last occur, there shall be inserted the words 'or under the Trade Marks Act, 1938, as the case may be.")
§ LORD TEMPLEMOREMy Lords, the International Convention provides that, where the last day of the period for claiming priority under the Convention in respect of an application for a patent or for the registration of a design or a trade mark falls upon a dies non or a day when the Patent Office is not open to receive the deposit of applications, the period shall be extended until the first following working day. There is already statutory provision for this so far as patents and designs are concerned in Section 82 of the Act. The Amendment makes similar provision with regard to trade marks. I beg to move that this House doth agree with the Commons in the said Amendment.
§ Moved, That this House doth agree with the Commons in the said Amendment.—(Lord Templemore.)
§ On Question, Motion agreed to.
