Revision as of 11:31, 8 June 2013

On 19 April 2013, the German parliament (the 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? Help from German-speakers sought to expand the details and check the terminology


The vote to send the text to the committees was approved by a large majority, including the governing parties. The "Rechtsausschuss (f)" is leading in coordination with:

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

What can we do?

  • Ask Germans to contact members of those committees to support the proposed text?
