Grounds for refusal Under Clause 1 of Article 1377 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation the application for grant of a patent for an industrial design shall be related to one industrial design or to a group of industrial designs associated with each other so closely as to form a single creative concept (the requirement of unity of the industrial design). This requirement is met where there is: one independent and distinct industrial design; or one industrial design and its variants differing from that industrial design by visually non-essential features and/or by color combination; or a group of industrial designs belonging to the same set of articles, as well as one or more industrial designs for separate articles belonging to the same set of articles. It is required that all industrial designs of the group shall belong to the same class of International Classification for Industrial Designs (Locarno classification). Under Clause 1 of Article 1352 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation the essential features of an industrial design shall include features determining the aesthetic characteristics of the external appearance of the article, in particular, the shape, configuration, ornamentation, combination of colors, lines, contours of the article, texture or material of the article. The essential features of the external appearance are recognized as essential if they determine the aesthetic characteristics of the external appearance of an article, being dominant and determine the overall visual impression. The non-essential features of the external appearance include such slightly distinguishable and inexpressive features of the external appearance of an article, the exclusion of which from the set of the features of the external appearance does not lead to a change the overall visual impression (clause 72 of the Rules for the drafting, filing and examination of the documents, that are the basis for legally significant actions on the state registration of an industrial design). The claimed group of industrial designs includes: the industrial design 1: fig. 1.1-1.7; the industrial design 2: fig. 2.1-2.7. The claimed group of industrial designs does not meet the requirement of unity of the industrial design. Only one of the claimed industrial designs of this application can be considered.
Particular Methods of Procurement of Consultants’ Services 1. Quality- and Cost-based Selection. Except as otherwise provided in paragraph 2 below, consultants’ services shall be procured under contracts awarded on the basis of Quality and Cost-based Selection.
Value for Money Each Candidate Scheme must demonstrate value for money i.e. the optimal use of resources to achieve the intended outcomes. The National Audit Office use three criteria to assess value for money: economy – minimising the cost of resources used or required – spending less; efficiency – the relationship between the outputs from goods or services and the resources to produce them – spending well; and effectiveness – the relationship between the intended and actual results of public spending – spending wisely. In basic terms value for money is the degree to which benefits exceed costs and the use of HM Treasury’s Green Book and Business Case Appraisal process in assessed Candidate Schemes is expected to demonstrate the potential value of any scheme. The Candidate Scheme business case is also expected to refer, where appropriate, to guidance on value for money and other benefits specific to the nature of the proposed scheme, this will include demonstrating social return on investment and local multiplier benefits. The business case may also highlight how the schemes procurement might improve economic, social and environmental well-being of the region and how such improvements might be secured in its implementation. The Regional Cabinet when deciding on whether to support a Candidate Scheme will take a wide range of evidence into consideration in addition to the level of value for money. There may be occasions when, although the measure of value for money is low, due to the wider regional economic impacts on the Regional Economic Strategy targets, cost effectiveness, environmental and social impact, and leverage of additional funding the Candidate Scheme will be supported.
