ORDER
For the above reasons, it is decided that:
1. The appeal is allowed and the decision under appeal is set aside.
2. The case is remitted to the Receiving Section for consideration of the question whether at the date of entry into the regional phase the application contained only five claims because additional search fees had not been paid in response to an invitation from the International Searching Authority.
3. The appeal fee is to be reimbursed.
