§ LORD WINTERBOTTOMMy Lords, with the leave of this House, I beg to move that this House doth agree with the Commons in their Amendments Nos. 9 and 10, which go together. Their purpose is to extend to registered users of a trade mark the right which Clause 16 originally conferred solely on the proprietor of the mark; namely, to call on Customs to prevent the import of specified consignments of goods bearing an infringing trade mark. This extension provides for the case where a registered user of a trade mark wants prompt action to be taken and cannot get the proprietor to move in time. I beg to move.
§ Moved, That this House doth agree with the Commons in the said Amendments.—(Lord Winterbottom.)
§ On Question, Motion agreed to.
