Rule 117
Amelia Andersdotter (Verts/ALE)

In its answer to Written Question E-009093/2012 the Commission refers to its Statement 2005/295/EC[1], which includes a clearly non-exhaustive list of intellectual property rights (‘The Commission considers that at least the following intellectual property rights are covered by the scope of the [Intellectual Property Rights Enforcement] Directive’).

Which criteria were used to determine that rights related to copyright should be included in the list of intellectual property rights covered by Article 2 of the directive?
