#### 164 Crown exploitation of inventions—information to be given by relevant authority
As soon as practicable after an invention has been exploited in the circumstances mentioned in subsection 163(3) or 163A(3), the relevant authority must inform the applicant and the nominated person, or the patentee, of the exploitation and give him or her any information about the exploitation that he or she from time to time reasonably requires, unless it appears to the relevant authority that it would be contrary to the public interest to do so.
