Under the bill,
during the preliminary examination, the application which does not contain the
proposal of the applicant to treat the invention (useful model) as a state
secret is scrutinized on the availability of information which may be treated
as a state secret under the Code of Information forming State Secret, compiled
and published in the official editions by the Security Service of Ukraine on
the basis of decisions of the state experts on classified information and the
Law "On State Secret."
Adjusting the bill for the second reading, the People´s Deputies
received 13 proposals, most of which were taken into consideration. The
Committee rejected the proposal to publish the information on the issue of
patent for secret invention online. According to the Committee members, "information
about secret invention can not be posted online, since it is an additional
opportunity to obtain secret data."
