Whereas this right can be extended by Council decision to persons who do not benefit from protection pursuant to the said provisions ;

Whereas Canada has regulations according suitable protection to designers of topographies and has announced that it plans to extend their applications, from 1 November 1994, to Community nationals and to natural and legal persons that have a real and effective establishment there for the purpose of designing topo- graphies or manufacturing integrated circuits;

Whereas the Agreement on trade-related aspects of intel- lectual property rights, which forms part of the result of the Uruguay Round of multilateral trade negotiations embodied in the Marrakesh Final Act of 15 April 1994, requires Members to grant protection to integrated-circuit topographies in compliance with its own provisions and with those of the Treaty on Intellectual Property in Respect of Integrated Circuits to which it refers ;

Whereas the Agreement, together with that establishing the World Trade Organization, will enter into force on 1 January 1995 or as soon as possible after that date; whereas the developed countries which are Members of the Agreement establishing the World Trade Organiza- tion will have one year following the entry into force of that Agreement in which to implement the Agreement on trade related aspects of intellectual property rights ;
