It may happen occasionally, that after completion of a search report, the Search Division discovers further relevant documents (e.g. in a later search for a related application). Copies of these documents should be sent with a note to the Receiving Section, which, depending upon the stage of procedure reached, will proceed under one of the following three variants. These documents should be added to the search report up to the time that preparations for its publication are completed. Up to the filing of a request for examination, such later discovered documents should be communicated to the applicant in an addition to the search report and this information will be published. Thereafter, such documents may be used in examination.
