19.‍4 (1) The Commissioner shall, on the application of the Minister of Health, authorize the Government of Canada and any person specified in the application to make, construct, use and sell a patented invention to the extent necessary to respond to the public health emergency described in the application.

(c) include a description of the public health emergency; and
(d) specify a person, if any, that is to be authorized to make, construct, use and sell the patented invention for the purposes of responding to the public health emergency.

Cessation of effect
(3) The authorization ceases to have effect the earlier of

Notice

Payment of remuneration
(5) The Government of Canada and any person authorized under subsection (1) shall pay the patentee any amount that the Commissioner considers to be adequate remuneration in the circumstances, taking

Authorization not transferable
(6) An authorization granted under this section is not transferable.

For greater certainty
