The notification by Japan to the WTO under article 63.2 of TRIPS states:
'Article 100 of the Act (Revocation of Patent Rights or Patent Licenses) provides that it is the court that makes the declaration of revocation of patent rights or patent licenses. Therefore, an opportunity for judicial review of decisions to revoke or forfeit a patent shall be available. This provision implements Article 32 of the TRIPS Agreement.'
