EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Rules)
These Rules correct rule 8(5) of the Registered Design Rules ( SI 1995/2912 ) and rule 10(5) of
the Trade Mark Rules 2000 (SI 2000/136 ). Both of these provisions were amended incorrectly by
the Patents, Trade Marks and Designs (Address For Service and Time Limits, etc) Rules 2006 (SI
2006/760 ). These Rules substitute the word “registrar” for the word “comptroller” in both rule 8(5)
of the Registered Design Rules 1995 and rule 10(5) of the Trade Mark Rules 2000.
