translate English to French: The majority of delegations and representatives of users, while recognizing that the procedures under Rules 40 and 68 were cumbersome, opposed the proposal to eliminate the protest procedure altogether on the grounds that it would remove the applicant’s right to challenge a finding of non-unity of invention by an Authority, thus increasing the burden on applicants and designated Offices in the national phase and resulting in incomplete searches and examinations of a greater number of international applications.
Certaines délégations ont proposé la suppression du système de réserve au sein des administrations chargées de la recherche internationale prévu à la règle 40 et du système de réserve au sein des administrations chargées de l’examen préliminaire international prévu à la règle 68, afin de réduire la charge de travail des administrations.
