CHINA TRADE.
CONFIDENTIAL.
[41421]
No. 1.
[December 7.]
SECTION 1.
Question asked in the House of Commons, December 7, 1906.
Mr. Tillett, To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he can now state if the new Trade-mark Law in China has yet been brought into operation; if not, whether there is any likelihood of this taking place in the near future; whether the Regulations proposed in 1904 have been amended; if so, in what manner; whether he has official reports showing that traders secure any real advantage from now depositing their trade-marks at Shanghae; and whether registration of a trade-mark in China will prevail over a prior user of the same mark.
Answer.
I fear I can add nothing to the reply given by me to the same question when put by the honourable Member on the 26th July last.
Discussion with regard to amendments to the original draft Regulations is still proceeding among the Powers interested.
