lpv:spoken text	"I voted against this report, as I believe that in a time of economic hardship and spreading financial crisis we can ill afford another unnecessary EU institution. The Office for Harmonisation in the Internal Market will be another bureaucracy-generating institution that will likely place a stranglehold on innovation and growth by undermining domestic capabilities in the area of intellectual rights, trademarks and design laws with restrictive European legislation. I do not agree that current UK law governing intellectual property should be usurped by a European model. What will result will be confusion as international intellectual property law, WIPO and its related competences, as well as national provisions are pitted against an influx of EU legislation that is simply not needed."@en1
