The Directive on the protection of undisclosed know-how and business information (trade secrets) against their unlawful acquisition, use and disclosure is a Directive of the European Parliament and the European Council which was adopted by the European Council on 27 May 2016 following an agreement reached with the European Parliament on 15 December 2015 and amendment by the Parliament on 14 March 2016.[1] The aim of the directive is "to harmonise the existing diverging national laws [within the EU] on the protection against the misappropriation of trade secrets, so that companies can exploit and share their trade secrets with privileged business partners across the Internal Market, turning their innovative ideas into growth and jobs".[2] EU member states are required to "bring into force the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with this Directive" within two years i.e. by May 2018.[3] Trade secret holders will be entitled to apply for remedies following cases of illegal appropriation of documents, objects, materials, substances or electronic files containing the trade secret or from which the trade secret can be deduced.[4] TextThe text of the directive is available at https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/dir/2016/943/oj References1. ^European Commission, Trade Secrets, accessed 3 July 2016 2. ^European Commission, Trade Secrets, accessed 3 July 2016 3. ^Article 19.1 of the Directive 4. ^Bird and Bird, Latest News on the Trade Secrets Directive, accessed 3 July 2016 4 : European Union law|Intellectual property law|Secrecy|Trade secrets |
