The following checks should be made when you receive the A Published message from Publication Section to confirm;
a) that the A letter and published specification have been correctly imported on the dossier;
b) all documents open to public inspection, should be marked as YES in the Public column of the TOC;
c) that OLFI actions and annotations have been made where necessary
d) that the details on the published specification (ADOC) accurately reflect the information on file and that all pages have been printed (including amended claims and further search reports if filed). If this is not the case, the details can be corrected. An erratum is not normally issued at this stage unless the agent requests it;
e) whether an unactioned F10 is on the dossier
f) whether it is a Combined Search and Examination case see 9.26 9.29
g) whether the case is a Divisional see 9.30
h) Where amended claims have been published alongside the existing claims they will have the code ACLMS in the TOC. There should be another copy of the amended claims on file which should have the code CLMS and annotated Working Copy after pub. The annotation should then be changed to Working Copy and the ACLMS cancelled.
