Terms agreed, but numbers are changed

In November of last year this weblog posted, ahead of its printed publication, this Current Intelligence note by Enrico Bonadio (who now lectures at the City Law School, London) entitled "IP Provisions of the EU-Central America Association Agreement and Development Issues".

Enrico has just informed us that the Association Agreement has now been initialled, having been subjected to a legal review.  This exercise has, inconveniently, resulted in the renumbering of various provisions -- even though there was some indication that this would not happen. For the record:

- Article 3 of the IP Chapter of the Association Agreement has become Article 231
- Article XX of the Association Agreement has become Article 55(3)(c)
- Article 2(1) of the IP Chapter of the Association Agreement has become Article 229(2)(a)
- Article 2(2) of the IP Chapter of the Association Agreement has become Article 229(2)(b)
- Article 2(4) of the IP Chapter of the Association Agreement has become Article 229(4)
- Article 2(5) of the IP Chapter of the Association Agreement has become Article 229(5)
- Article 10 of the IP Chapter of the Association Agreement has become Article 259.
