In the history of British patent law, the role of Parliament is
often side-lined. This is largely due to the raft of failed or
timid attempts at patent law reform. Yet there was another way of
seeking change. By the end of the nineteenth century, private
legislation had become a mechanism or testing ground for more
general law reforms. The evolution of the law had essentially been
privatised and was handled in the committee rooms in Westminster.
This is known in relation to many great industrial movements such
as the creating of railways, canals and roads, or political
movements such as the powers and duties of local authorities, but
it has thus far been largely ignored in the development of patent
law. This book addresses this shortfall and examines how private
legislation played an important role in the birth of modern patent
law.
