4. In the judgement of the board, the application meets the requirements of the EPC. However, the board has noticed an obvious linguistic error in claim 11 (part II)(as filed 4 June 1997 with the letter dated 30. May 1997), namely, after the first occurrence of the word "transferring" the pronoun "it" should be deleted and replaced by "them". The board directs that this error be corrected. ORDER

For these reasons it is decided that:

1. The decision under appeal is set aside.

2. The case is remitted to the department of first instance with the order to grant a patent on the basis of the appellant's request (see paragraph IV above), with correction of the obvious linguistic error in claim 11 (see paragraph 4 above).
