Increase in transparency in the area of plant breeding

In 2022, the Science, Education and Culture Committee (SECC-S) of the Council of States submitted the motion ‘More transparency in the area of patent rights in plant breeding’ (in German, French and Italian). In this motion, it instructed the Federal Council to amend the bases of patent law and – where necessary – plant variety law so as to improve the transparency of patent rights in the area of plant breeding.

 

The IPI is responsible for implementing the committee’s motion.
