                  Issues for Copyright Interests
                  About Enforcement and Other
                  Matters

                  I. CONSUMER WHITE PAPER: `MODERN MARKETS:
                  CONFIDENT CONSUMERS'

                  A copy of the consumer white paper can be obtained
                  from the Stationery Office (telephone orders on 0870
                  600 5522) or on the Internet at:

                            http://www.dti.gov.uk/consumer/whitepaper 


                  The white paper is, as the name suggests, relevant
                  to the interests of consumers, but it does recognise
                  that counterfeiting and piracy are activities which
                  can adversely affect consumers. There are specific
                  references to counterfeiting and piracy in
                  paragraphs 3.20, 3.21, 7.4 and 7.9. Any comments on
                  the white paper should be sent to Stephen Haddrill,
                  Director of Consumer Affairs at the address
                  indicated in the white paper. The deadline for
                  receipt of comments is 29 October 1999. It would be
                  appreciated if comments relevant to intellectual
                  property crime could also be copied to the address
                  at the end of this notice.
