(a) item h) of the clauses in point 401.14 and its equivalent in the Schedule A clause of circular OMB A-124 provides that agencies have the right to obtain regular reports from the contractor on the use of inventions. Agencies exercising this right should, as far as possible, accept this information in the format in which the contractor normally prepares it for its own internal needs. Prescription forms should be avoided. However, all standard forms or questionnaires adopted for this purpose by an agency must meet the requirements of the Paper Work Reduction Act. Copies are to be sent to the secretary. (g) where a finding of fact has been made, the head of the Agency or the agent is based on the established facts, as well as any other information and other written or oral arguments submitted by the licensee (exclusive transferee or licensee) and agency representatives, as well as any other information contained in the administrative minutes. The coherence of the exercise of invasion rights with the policy and objectives of 35 United States. C 200 is also considered. In cases where facts are established, the head of the Agency or the head of the Agency or the head of the Agency can only reject facts that have been found to be manifestly wrong, but must explicitly state the refusal and indicate the basis for the finding to the contrary. The written notification of the exercise of the intrusion rights is made by the head of the Agency or by the agent and is communicated in writing to the licensee (exclusive licensee) in writing within 90 days of the conclusion of the finding of the facts or 90 days after the oral procedure and is forwarded to the holder (exclusive licensee) by certification or recommended letter. 1992, 1996 (b) The government should also endeavour not to disclose to the public, for a reasonable period of time, any other information that reveals an invention of the object.
This information includes all data provided in accordance with the requirements of the contract, provided that the contractor informs the Agency of the identity of the data and the purpose of the invention to which it relates at the time of the data delivery. This notification must be forwarded to the contract agent and any representative of the patent to which the invention is notified, unless the client is notified. (iii) When the financing agency notifies an invention in which the contractor has not opted for the property reserve, the agency employing a federal co-inventor must determine whether there is a state interest in patenting the invention and notify the funding agency of its decision. The Bayh-Dole Act was born out of congressional efforts to respond to the economic malaise of the 1970s. [8] One of The Congress` efforts focused on how best to manage inventions created with the more than $75 billion a year invested in publicly funded research and development. Three philosophies were discussed: “Hamilton`s belief that the solution was a strong central government, which should take responsibility for it and actively manage those resources”; “a Jeffersonian belief that the solution was to the individual and that the best thing the government could do to encourage success was to avoid these individuals”; and a belief that “could only hurt this government and that it had to ensure that everyone benefited financially from the government`s efforts.” [8] (3) refusal of derogation under item 27.302 (g), preference for U.S. industry; or (e) the transfer of rights to the contractor on inventions of government employees, in accordance with public authorities.
