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.
