To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, whether he plans to change the rules relating to the exhaustion of intellectual property rights.
This question was answered on 19th July 2021
The Government is currently consulting on what the UK’s future IP exhaustion regime should be, and if there is to be a change, how any change should be implemented. This consultation closes on 31 August 2021. At the present time, no decisions have been made as to whether a change from the current system is in the best interests of the UK.
