Dear Bruce and all,

Probably this Swiss law (quite similar to the Australian one and including hefty penalties, such as imprisonment) could be considered as an additional example: : https://www.admin.ch/opc/fr/classified-compilation/19610274/index.html

(sorry, no EN translation available in the official database - therefore pointing to the French version)

Kind regards

Jorge

Thanks for pointing this out Bruce.

This squarely underscores what has been put forward inter alia by IGOs and the GAC for some years now (which was also noted as having broad agreement in concluding the Sunday evening session in Copenhagen), namely a strong public policy basis for the limited protection sought for IGO identifiers in furtherance of their global public missions -- of which we are all beneficiaries.

Best regards,

Brian

Hello All,

Just been informed that Australia does have a law related to International Organizations:

So this is an example of applicable local law:

International Organisations (Privileges and Immunities) Act 1963

https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/C2016C01053

" Except with the consent in writing of the Minister, a person (including a body corporate) shall not:

    (a)  use the name or an abbreviation of the name of an international organisation to which this Act applies in connexion with a trade, business, profession, calling or occupation;"

There is a list of organizations to which the act applies.


Looks like strong protection at least in Australia.

Regards,
Bruce Tonkin
