SUPPLEMENT TO THE AUSTRIAN PATENT LAWS.

III.

Instructions to be followed on application por a Patent.

Owing to the altered conditions of Public Law, and on the basis of the agree­ment arrived at between the Royal Hungarian and the Imperial and Royal Ministries for Agriculture and Commerce, relative to the treatment of matters having reference to patents for inventions, sanctioned by His Imperial and Royal Apostolic Majesty by Decree of June 5th of the present year (1867), the Ministry for Agriculture and Commerce herewith bring the following rules under general notice:

1. Every patentee has henceforth to furnish two s im ilar copies of the specification of the patent as well as of the drawings and patterns thereunto pertaining, of which one copy will be kept in the Patent Archives of the Royal Hungarian Ministry for Agriculture, Industry, and Commerce, and the other in the Central Patent Archives of the Imperial and Royal Ministry for Agriculture and Commerce.

In cases where, on account of the incompleteness of the original specification, the production of supplementary specifications is indispensable, these, together with the drawings and patterns, must also be presented in two similar copies of each.

2. The patents will be granted as heretofore, to be valid for the whole extent of the Empire, but every patentee will henceforth receive two patents, one from the Royal Hungarian Ministry of Agriculture, Industry, and Commerce, which will be valid for the kingdom of Hungary and Transylvania, the other from the Imperial and Royal Ministry of Agriculture and Commerce, which will be valid for the other Crown Lands.

3. The concession for extension or transfer of patents granted prior to the 10th March, 1867, will be confirmed on the record of the patent by both Ministries.

The confirmation of such concessions as refer to patents granted after the 10th of March, 1867, will be made by the respective Ministries on the two patents mentioned in sec. 2 ; accordingly both documents must in each case be annexed to applications for the extension or transfer of patents.

The duty on patents remains unaltered.

The Imperial and Royal Ministry for

Vienna, 8th June, 1867. Agriculture and Commerce.
