520			_aThe question of whether plant variety protection, which is a form of IPR in the same category as patents, copyrights, and trademarks, can be adopted in the Philippines was the topic of the paper of Dr. Manuel Lantin. He expounded on the difference between plant variety protection and patent protection, and raised the arguments for the institution of a plant variety protection system. He also identified the criticisms against this form of IPR. Recent discussions on this issue, particularly by the multicountry International Union for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants Show that there is a prevailing support for individuals other than the property owners to use protected varieties. The Consultative Group for International Aquaculture Research, also supports the unrestrictive availability of plant genetic resources
