On 19 April 2013, the German parliament (Bundestag) approved the sending of an anti-software-patents "petition" (draft motion) to three parliamentary committees. The three committees will debate this text and propose modifications before returning a final proposal which the parliament will vote on.Can you help? Is this correct? Help from German-speakers sought


The vote to send the text to the committees was approved by a large majority, including the governing parties. The three committees which will review the text are:

  • A. f. Wirtschaft und Technologie
  • A. f. Bildung, Forschung und Technikfolgenabschätzung
  • A. f. Kultur und Medien
