Side by side
Consultation participation and their own register declarations, side by side. Counts, not judgments — participation is not influence.
Counts here are a floor, never a total: they cover the 583 consultation files tracked so far (42,224 submissions, mostly 2025–26), so an organization's real filing history is larger, not smaller.

The SPC is a very important intellectual property right for pharmaceutical companies, enabling innovation and the making available of new medicines. The positive effect of the SPC in this regard was confirmed by the Commission’s evaluation of the SPC legislation in 2020. In view of the above, Lif strongly believes that no changes should be made to the SPC itself or to related legislation (alt C2).
