HC Deb 22 March 2001 vol 365 c306W
30. Dr. Gibson

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what plans he has to review the law relating to intellectual property rights. [153661]

Dr. Howells

UK law relating to intellectual property rights is continually being updated in response to new developments at international, European and domestic levels. Where relevant European legislation provides specifically for a review, we intend to play a full part in that process.
