Undisclosed Information
6. Please explain in detail if the legislation of Seychelles ensures that undisclosed test or other data submitted by an applicant to the responsible State agency in the procedure for market authorisation of a pharmaceutical or of an agricultural chemical product is protected against disclosure and against unfair commercial use by a competitor, for example by prohibiting a second applicant from relying on, or from referring to the original data of the first applicant, when applying subsequently for market authorisation for their own product.
Section 106 of the Industrial Property Act 2014 ensures that undisclosed test or other data submitted by an applicant to the responsible agency in the procedure for market authorization of a pharmaceutical, agricultural or chemical product is protected against discloser and against unfair commercial use by a competitor.
