For businesses in Wales who are subject to a copyright infringement, advice can be found on the UK Government website. The Supply Chain Toolkit can help businesses recognise and mitigate risks associated with counterfeit goods entering their supply chains. This resource provides guidance on protecting Intellectual Property (IP) assets and steps to take if infringements occur. Additionally, the Trading Standards Business Companion site offers information on trading standards and consumer protection legislation.
Businesses encountering IP crime can seek advice from Citizens Advice by calling 0800 144 8848 and Welsh-speaking advisors are available on 0800 702 2020. For anonymous reporting, Crimestoppers can be contacted on 0800 555 111. Local Trading Standards authorities are the primary agencies for enforcing criminal IP legislation and can provide further assistance. More information can be found using the links below:
