Present:
The Right Honourable R. J. Seddon presiding in Council.

WHEREAS by the one-hundred-and-seventh section of “The Patents, Designs, and Trade-marks Act, 1889” (hereinafter called “the said Act”), it is, among other things, enacted that, where it is made to appear to the Governor in Council that the Legislature of any British possession other than New Zealand has made satisfactory provision for the protection of inventions, designs, and trade-marks, or any of them, patented or registered in New Zealand, the Governor may from time to time by Order in Council apply all or any of the provisions of the last preceding section of the said Act relating to the protection of inventions, designs, and trade-marks protected or registered in England, with such variations or additions, if any, as to the Governor in Council may seem fit, to inventions, designs, and trade-marks, or any of them, patented or registered in such British possession; and by the said first-mentioned section it is also provided that an Order in Council made under the said section shall, from a date to be mentioned for the purpose in the Order, take effect as if its provisions had been contained in the said Act, but the Governor in Council may revoke any such Order in Council: And whereas it has been made to appear to the Governor in Council that the Legislature of the Commonwealth of Australia has, under and by virtue of the provisions of “The Patents Act, 1903,” made satisfactory provision for the protection of inventions for which protection has been applied in New Zealand: And whereas it is expedient that provision should be made under the provisions of the herein-before-recited section of the said Act for the application of the provisions of the one-hundred-and-sixth section of such Act to inventions patented in the Commonwealth of Australia, subject, however, as hereinafter mentioned:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the power and authority vested in him by the one-hundred-and-seventh section of the said Act, and by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said colony, doth hereby order and declare that all the provisions of the one-hundred-and-sixth section of “The Patents, Designs, and Trade-marks Act, 1889,” relating to the protection of inventions patented in England shall apply to inventions patented in the Commonwealth of Australia, subject, however, to this condition: that the application for letters patent in New Zealand, in accordance with such provision, must 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, in further pursuance and exercise of the power and authority aforesaid, and with the like advice and consent as aforesaid, it is ordered that this present Order in Council shall take effect on and after the first day of April, one thousand nine hundred and five.
