30th January 2020 Note –

In accordance with the meeting dates fixed for 2019 by the Privileges and Procedures Committee, this meeting will continue, if necessary, on Wednesday 5th and Thursday 6th February 2020.

Explanatory Note regarding subordinate legislation tabled at this meeting. (See Item B)

R&O.7/2020.

Intellectual Property (Unregistered Rights) (Works of Foreign Provenance) (Amendment No. 2) (Jersey) Order 2020.

This Order amends the Intellectual Property (Unregistered Rights) (Works of Foreign Provenance) (Jersey) Order 2012 which makes provision in relation to the application of the Intellectual Property (Unregistered Rights) (Jersey) Law 2011.

The amendments flow from the consequences of the United Kingdom leaving the European Union with a relevant deal, and the need to make updated provision about certain unregistered intellectual property rights in view of the ramifications of the deal.

The amendments come into force only when (and if) the European Union (United Kingdom Exit – Miscellaneous Amendments) (Jersey) Regulations 2019 are commenced by an Order which would bring into force other provisions for an exit with a deal. The Order also repeals the Intellectual Property (Unregistered Rights) (Works of Foreign Provenance) (Amendment) (Jersey) Order 2019, which would have been brought into force if the United Kingdom had left the European Union without a relevant deal (and is therefore no longer needed).

The main effect of the amendments is to ensure that the UK continues to be treated appropriately in Jersey if it is not an EU Member State or an EEA State. So, whilst EEA States will continue to be qualifying countries for the purposes of the Intellectual Property (Unregistered Rights) (Jersey) Law 2011 and their nationals will continue to be qualifying persons, the amendments ensure that the UK will also continue to be a qualifying country and British citizens will continue to be qualifying persons.

The Order was made on 22nd January 2020 and comes into force in accordance with Article 17.
