From 1st January, 2011 the UK government has relaxed the patent application process. Declaring the news, Intellectual Property Minister Baroness Wilcox said that “from 1st January 2011 anyone supplying paperwork to the European Patent Office will be able to do so with fewer documents than had been required in the past.” The press report by the UK Intellectual Property office said that “under the relaxed arrangements, UK applicants will no longer be required to supply the EPO with the results of searches already carried out by the Intellectual Property Office and it is expected that around 5,000 applications a year will benefit from the Intellectual Property Office automatically supplying the information from its records.”
