Schedule 2paragraph 9
100.This paragraph adds a new subsection (4) to section 24. When a patent is granted, existing section 24(3) requires the comptroller to publish the patent as granted, and (amongst other things) also to publish the inventor’s name. The new section 24(4) makes clear that the comptroller will no longer be required to publish the inventor’s name, where the inventor has waived his right to be mentioned.
