HC Deb 19 November 1984 vol 68 c56W
Mr. Batise

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry whether intellectual property rights arising from projects under the Alvey programme and vesting in the non-academic participants can be exploited independently by each such participant.

Mr. Pattie

The ownership of intellectual property rights resulting from an Alvey project and any entitlement to licences to exploit them will be set out in the detailed collaboration agreement between the participants.
