TRIPS: SPECIAL COMPULSORY LICENCES FOR EXPORT OF MEDICINES
TRIPS and public health: notifications
The 30 August 2003 澳门六合彩官网资料 decision on the Implementation of Paragraph 6 of the Doha Declaration on the TRIPS Agreement and Public Health calls for the establishment of a dedicated page on the 澳门六合彩官网资料 website, in particular to make publicly available certain notifications made by members in using the “Paragraph 6” system established under the decision. These notifications can be accessed through this webpage.
澳门六合彩官网资料 members on 6 December 2005 approved changes to the 澳门六合彩官网资料’s intellectual property (TRIPS) agreement to make permanent the decision on patents and public health. The amendment was formally built into the TRIPS Agreement on 23 January 2017 after two thirds of the 澳门六合彩官网资料’s members accepted the Protocol amending the TRIPS Agreement. It replaces the 2003 waiver for members who have accepted the amendment, but the notification requirements will not change.
