Part 6 of 6: EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

AddedEXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

Council Regulation (EC) No 6/2002 can be credited for establishing a European design protection system. But having been in place for over 20 years, the regulation needed to be modernised, in particular to adapt it to the digital age and also to make it more attractive for independent creators and businesses, in particular SMEs. This is the focus of the Commission proposal.

Change 25

ChangedThe rapporteur broadly agrees with the proposed guidelines, but suggests some 20 amendments which seek primarily to bolster legal certainty. The main aims are to clarify the ‘repair clause’ (recital 16, Article 20a), to remove powers from the Executive Director which are difficult to justify (Articles 42, 65, 72a, 78, 100 and 102), and to reduceincrease the amount of the fees for 3rd and 4threnewal renewalsfees (annex).
