Re: [Australia-public-discuss] Review of the Innovation Patent System - final report out

[Brendan Molloy]

Patents is one of those doctrines with support for reform from many 
sides of the political and economic spectrums, because the benefits of a 
more relaxed regime are plentiful in all instances.

There's still a good chance these positive changes will be introduced in 
the future, but it is unlikely under the current Government I'd say, 
because as you're getting at, there's quite a bit of cronyism going on 
at this time.
