"Mr President, Mrs McCarthy stated that it is up to the Commissioner to find such a compromise. I would take the liberty of proposing Amendment No 32, containing a simple system through which proposals can be submitted in English or another of the Community languages. Summaries of the applications would be translated into all the Community languages.
I wish to emphasise that this amendment would mean citizens’ being given a glimpse of the monopolies that restrict their opportunities. I should also like to point out that there are other factors just as important as the Community patent when it comes to increasing the number of innovations within the Community. I believe, for example, that the inventions of universities and the latter’s opportunity to exploit these are pivotal. In Europe, we at present have rules which are difficult to interpret and which mean that the universities cannot make the most of their opportunities.
I would urge the Commission to review this aspect which affects a relatively large number of countries, as well as the right of universities and researchers to their inventions. We are now in the process of creating a vigorously competitive system, and it is not necessarily only European inventors who may benefit from this. It is competing systems that are crucial when it comes to the Community patent."@en1
