Trade Marks Act 2002

Process for obtaining registration of trade mark and other matters - Other matters - Alteration of certification trade mark regulations

80: Advertisement of application for alteration of regulations

You could also call this:

"Telling everyone about a request to change certification trade mark rules"

When someone asks to change the rules for a registered certification trade mark, the Commissioner has to let everyone know about it. They will advertise this request in the way that the law says they should.

If anyone doesn't like the idea of changing these rules, they can tell the Commissioner. They have to do this within a certain time. If someone does object, the Commissioner can't make a decision right away. Instead, they have to give everyone involved a chance to talk about it first.
