Section 60
Nature and scope of rights under section 56
(1)
The right to use a patented invention under section 56 —
is not exclusive;
must not be assigned otherwise than in connection with the goodwill of the business in which the patented invention is used; and

(2)
The right under section 56 to use a relevant health product which is imported under section 56(2) does not include a right to export the relevant health product.
(3)
The right to use a patented invention under section 56 may, on the application of any interested party, be terminated by the court, where the court is satisfied that the circumstances that gave rise to the right to use the patented invention have ceased to exist and are unlikely to recur.
(4)
Where the court has terminated the right under section 56 to use a patented invention, the court may make such consequential orders as it thinks necessary.
