Not true, decision is still months away, they are only planning on it and it is looking like the UK will vote against extension.

I thought it was 50 years?

wmarkj: in most countries of the EU it IS 50 years, a protection of 95 years instead of those 50 years is requested. But as roger wilson wrote : it'll take a lot of time before this really happens. Ever seen politicians make a quick decision ( and you may be sure politics will play a serious part in this matter)? Not me ! Always EL.
