The Plant Breeders' Rights (Miscellaneous Ornamental Plants) (Variation) Scheme 1990
This Scheme varies the Plant Breeders' Rights (Miscellaneous Ornamental Plants) Scheme 1990 (“the principal Scheme”) by extending the schedule of genera and species of which plant varieties may be the subject of plant breeders' rights under Part I of the Plant Varieties and Seeds Act 1964 to cover all species of the genus Osteospermum L. (paragraph 2). By virtue of paragraph 3 of the principal Scheme, the period during which the rights may be exercised is 20 years. During that period infringements of the rights in the registered name of a variety of Osteospermum L. may be the subject of legal proceedings when committed in connection with any variety of Osteospermum.
