Summary: The violations of the European Patent Convention (EPC), the Boards of Appeal, and growing secrecy at the EPO were recently discussed in an online ‘meeting’
THE controversial (enabling corruption at the EPO) Vice-President who had protected both Benoît Battistelli and António Campinos in the Administrative Council met [sic] the Central Staff Committee (CSC) in a chatroom the other week.
=> controversial | EPO | Benoît Battistelli | António Campinos
“Nothing is rosy at the EPO and Campinos solved nothing; he’s just shouting and cursing (obscenities) at ‘his’ staff.”
They discussed these notes [PDF] about changes at the EPO. Days ago the CSC contacted staff and said:

Dear colleagues,
The agenda of the meeting was as follows:
Amendments to Circular 364 – Implementation of the New Career System – Functional Allowance & Recruitment-related amendments GCC/DOC 07/2023
Amendments to Circular 411 – Application of Articles 70a and 71 ServRegs concerning young child and education allowances GCC/DOC 08/2023
Further development of the career system for members and chairs of the Boards of Appeal (CA/23/23) GCC/DOC 09/2023
Update to Staff Changes List GCC/DOC 10/2023
We wrote reasoned opinions on all four documents. They are included in this full report.
At present, the only way for mitigating the negative trends in our conditions of employments seems to be through legal litigation or individual resistance of many colleagues. This reveals the President’s unpreparedness and lack of interest in a real dialogue with the staff and its representation, despite various publicity stunts and announcements to the contrary.
They speak of “legal litigation or individual resistance of many colleagues.” Strikes maybe? is there an illegal litigation? Much resistance is also needed against the kangaroo court set up with facilitation of the EU/EC in violation of laws, constitutions, and conventions. The video above shows that the Boards of Appeal, which already lost their independence, are discussed a great deal in the document. The EPC, or the law which was supposed to govern the EPO (it’s routinely violated!), is also brought up. The annexes are very long and the video passed through them rather quickly. At least the PDF is available for all to access, including disgruntled outsiders such as prolific patent applicants. The EPO’s management loves to hide behind the curtain of cheesy PR pieces and bribed-for “media” coverage. Nothing is rosy at the EPO and Campinos solved nothing; he’s just shouting and cursing (obscenities) at ‘his’ staff. █
