The UK government has announced that Scotland's Court of Session will now be able to hear new patent cases.

Legal experts had warned that inventors and designers based in Scotland could lose out as a result of planned changes to the law.

In future a unified patent court will hear patent cases.

There will be up to four divisional courts in the UK - but there were originally no plans to have one in Scotland.

The Law Society of Scotland and the Faculty of Advocates had urged UK ministers to step in and change the law.
