¿Countries may wish to consider options to ensure their IP systems are both
properly applied and are supporting research and innovation. Some options
may include: national legislation which provides for strict requirements for drafting of
patent claims and higher standards for novelty requirements, so that patent claims
can be critically reviewed before being granted. Countries may also wish to consider
the establishment of a public defender type system so that those
without money can challenge alleged invalid patents or infringing patents; as well a
improving the training of patent examiners.¿
