IP Tango has learned from Enrico Bonadio (City Law School, London) that the Association Agreement between the European Union and Central American states (here) has now been initialled. Enrico has a particular interest in this topic, having recently written a Current Intelligence note for the Journal of Intellectual Property Law and Practice on the text of this treaty before the legal review took place (you can read it in full on the jiplp weblog here). Enrico adds:
"The Agreement, after the legal review, has remained as such, save for the numbering, which has been changed (it is very strange, since the negotiator whom I contacted last August confirmed to me that the numbering would not change)."
