Abstract
"The practitioners of intellectual property, including the patent offices, themselves acknowledge the need for adjustments in several respects. As patent law is in a state of constant evolution, they have themselves set about its amendment. For example, the criteria of patentability must be clarified and, in particular, the criterion of utility made more precise and refined. As the norms for appropriation of the genome are fluid, they are subject to further discussion and improvement. WIPO is currently working to clarify the specific problems arising in particular from access to genetic resources and their conservation."
