Paragraph 32 b (new)
32b. (New 35) Calls on the Commission to regularly assess the Member States’ effective protection of intellectual property rights which is an essential element of health competition policies. Trademark protection is essential in identifying and distinguishing products in the marketplace. Without trademarks and the ability to differentiate their products, it becomes very difficult, if not impossible, for manufacturers to enter into new markets. By focusing competition on price, it also makes it difficult for manufacturers with small market shares to strengthen their market position. The removal of trademarks or the limitations of its uses, therefore, creates a significant barrier to market entry, and undermines an essential aspect of free and fair competition in the EU;
