WHEREAS by the Extradition Acts, 1870 to 1906†, it was amongst other things enacted that, where an arrangement has been made with any foreign State with respect to the surrender to such State of any fugitive criminals, His Majesty may, by Order in Council, direct that the said Acts shall apply in the case of such foreign State; and that His Majesty may, by the same or any subsequent Order, limit the operation of the Order, and restrict the same to fugitive criminals who are in or suspected of being in the part of His Majesty's dominions specified in the Order, and render the operation thereof subject to such conditions, exceptions and qualifications as may be deemed expedient;

And whereas a Treaty was concluded on the 25th day of August, 1906, between His Majesty and the President of the Republic of Panama, for the extradition of criminals, which Treaty is in the terms following:

[See Vol. XCIX, page 457.]

And whereas the ratifications of the said Treaty were exchanged at Panama on the 15th day of April, 1907 :

Now, therefore, His Majesty, by and with the advice of His Privy Council, and in virtue of the authority committed to Him, by the said recited Acts, doth order, and it is hereby ordered, that from and after the 26th day of August, 1907, the said Acts shall apply in the case of Panama, and of the said Treaty with the President of the Republic of Panama :

Provided always that the operation of the said Acts shall be and remain suspended within the Dominion of Canada so long as an Act of Parliament of Canada, being Part I of chapter 155 of the revised Statutes of Canada, 1906‡, and entitled "An Act respecting the Extradition of Fugitive Criminals," shall continue in force there, and no longer.

BRITISH ORDER IN COUNCIL applying the Provisions of Section 103 of the Patents, etc., Act, 1883, to the British Possession of Trinidad and Tobago.-London, August 12, 1907.*

At the Court at Buckingham Palace, the 12th day of August,

[blocks in formation]

WHEREAS by Section 103 of the Patents, Designs and Trade Marks Act, 1883†, as amended by Section 6 of the Patents, Designs and Trade Marks (Amendment) Act, 1885, it is enacted as follows::

1. If his Majesty is pleased to make any arrangement with the Government or Governments of any foreign State or States for mutual protection of inventions, designs and trade marks, or any of them, then any person who has applied for protection for any invention, design or trade mark in any such State shall be entitled to a patent for his invention or to registration of his design or trade mark (as the case may be) under this Act in priority to other, applicants, and such patent or registration shall have the same date as the date of the application in such foreign State.

Provided that his application is made in the case of a patent within seven months, and in the case of a design or trade mark within four months, from his applying for protection in the foreign State with which the arrangement is in force: Provided that nothing in this section contained shall entitle the patentee or proprietor of the design or trade mark to recover damages for infringement happening prior to the date of the actual acceptance of his complete specification, or the actual registration of his design or trade mark in this country as the case may

be.

2. The publication in the United Kingdom or the Isle of Man during the respective periods aforesaid of any description of the invention, or the use therein during such periods of the invention, or the exhibition or use therein during such periods of the design, or the publication therein during such periods of a description or representation of the design, or the use therein during such periods of the trade mark, shall not invalidate the patent which may be granted for the invention or the registration of the design or trade mark.

3. The application for the grant of a patent, or the registration "London Gazette," August 16, 1907. + Vol. LXXIV, page 211. Vol. LXXVI, page 498.

of a design or the registration of a trade mark, under this section, must be made in the same manner as an ordinary application under this Act: provided that in the case of trade marks any trade mark, the registration of which has been duly applied for in the country of origin, may be registered under this Act.

4. The provisions of this section shall apply only in the case of those foreign States with respect to which His Majesty shall, from time to time by Order in Council, declare them to be applicable, and so long only in the case of each State as the Order in Council shall continue in force with respect to that State.

And whereas by Section 104 of the said first-mentioned Act it is enacted as follows:

1. Where it is made to appear to His Majesty that the legislature of any British Possession has made satisfactory provision for the protection of inventions, designs and trade marks, patented or registered in this country, it shall be lawful for his Majesty, from time to time by Order in Council, to apply the provisions of the last preceding section with such variations or additions (if any) as to His Majesty in Council may seem fit to such British Possession.

2. An Order in Council under this Act shall, from a date to be mentioned for the purpose in the Order, take effect as if its provisions had been contained in this Act, but it shall be lawful for His Majesty in Council to revoke any Order in Council made under this Act.

And whereas by Section 1 of the Patents Act, 1901*, it is enacted as follows::

1-(1) In the first proviso to subsection 1 of Section 103 of the Patents, Designs and Trade Marks Act, 1883 (which section relates to the time for making applications for protection under international arrangements) the words twelve months shall be substituted for the words "seven months."

[ocr errors]

(2) An application under that section shall be accompanied by a complete specification, which if it be not accepted within the period of twelve months shall with the drawings (if any) be open to public inspection at the expiration of that period.

And whereas it has been made to appear to His Majesty the King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and of the British Dominions beyond the Seas, Emperor of India, that the Legislature of Trinidad and Tobago has made satisfactory provision for the protection of inventions, designs and trade marks patented or registered in this country.

Now, therefore, by virtue of the authority committed to His Majesty by the above enactments, His Majesty, by and with the advice of his Privy Council, doth hereby declare, and it is hereby declared, as follows:

1. The provisions of Section 103 of the Patents, Designs and Trade Marks Act, 1883, as amended by Section 6 of the Patents,

* Vol. XCIV, page 500.

Designs and Trade Marks (Amendment) Act, 1885, and by Section 1 of the Patents Act, 1901, shall apply to the British Possession of Trinidad and Tobago.

2. This Order in Council shall take effect from the 12th day of August, 1907.

BRITISH ORDER IN COUNCIL revoking the Order in Council of April 30, 1894, applying the Patents, etc., Acts of 1883 and 1885 to Tasmania.-London, August 12, 1907.*

At the Court at Buckingham Palace, the 12th day of August, 1907.

PRESENT THE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY.

Lord President.

Lord Steward.

Lord Chamberlain.
Lord Denman.

Lord Tweedmouth.

WHEREAS by Order in Council, dated the 30th April, 1894†, the provisions of Section 103 of the Patents, Designs and Trade Marks Act, 1883, as amended by Section 6 of the Patents, Designs and Trade Marks (Amendment) Act of 1885§, were applied to Tasmania :

And whereas by Order in Council dated the 26th day of March, 1907, the provisions of the said Section 103 of the Patents, Designs and Trade Marks Act, 1883, as amended by the said Section 6 of the Patents, Designs and Trade Marks (Amendment) Act, 1885, and by Section 1 of the Patents Act, 1901, were applied to the Commonwealth of Australia:

And whereas seeing that the Commonwealth of Australia includes Tasmania it is deemed desirable that the said Order in Council, dated the 30th April, 1894, should be specifically revoked;

Now, therefore, His Majesty by and with the advice of His Privy Council, and in exercise of the powers in Him vested, doth hereby revoke the said Order in Council, dated the 30th April, 1894.
