The Community Patent Convention will make it possible to obtain a European Patent under the EPC procedure which is valid throughout the European Community. However, not all Member States have been able to ratify the convention to date, so it will be delayed or may come into operation with less than all the 15 Member States. The EPC had 17 members at 1 January 1996: 14 EC Member States (not Finland), Switzerland, Liechtenstein, and Monaco. In addition Slovenia, Lithuania, Latvia, Romania and Albania have arrangements enabling national patents based on EP applications to be readily obtained. Ownership
