Commission Report (2002): Latvia
As required by the Action Plan, the urgent priority of enforcing
intellectual and industrial property rights is being acted upon through the
establishment of a specialised division in the State Police, increased of
staff numbers and training, but co-operation between customs and the police
needs to be further improved. Despite the progress made, piracy and
counterfeiting still remain a matter of great concern. Intensive training for
enforcement bodies including judges and prosecutors has started, but needs to
continue. Regarding the urgent priority to implement the Commercial Code, the
relevant law has entered into force, but effective implementation has yet to
continue. Overall, the Accession Partnership priorities in the area of
company law have been partially met. The implementation of the measures under
the Action Plan is largely on track.
