1.  Are there any plans to move away from the CTMO’s mandatory list of goods and services, so as to allow more creativity in drafting of goods/services descriptions within the Nice classification system? If not, why not?

商标局是否有计划放松对商品和服务清单的硬性规定，允许在尼斯分类系统范围内更自由地描述商品或服务？如果目前没有的话，有什么政策上的考虑？

商标局是否有考虑制定新政策，像许多其他国家那样，允许申请人放弃对申请商标中某些词或图形的保护，以便使商标能获得注册？

3.  It seems that the amended Trademark Law, in not allowing appeals from negative decisions in opposition cases, is leading to CTMO examiners to reject opposition cases without providing significant reasons.  Is this an area that is under review?

修改后的商标法不再允许针对异议失败提起复审，这看似导致了商标局审查员驳回异议时不再给出有实义的原因。商标局是否有对这方面进行评估？

4.  Are CTMO and TRAB planning on introducing an objection/discussion based examination process, rather than simply moving to accept/reject, in the future?

中国商标局是否有计划解决在实质程序和行政程序中的较长脱延问题？例如：商标局采取了什么措施确保诸如8个月大范围延误打印注册证的情况将来不再发生？

8. If there is unusual delay in a specific case, is there a mechanism for the applicant or registrant to file a complaint? Is there a mechanism to accelerate or expedite an administrative procedure, even with an additional charge? If not, is there consideration to provide such a mechanism?

如果申请人在具体案件遇到超常延误问题，是否有机制让申请人或注册人向商标局专门机构寻求解决、投诉？是否有机制加速某些行政程序，即使需要额外付费也可以？如果目前没有，是否会考虑以后提供这样的机制？

9. How many examiners are there within CTMO at the present? Within TRAB? Is this number sufficient given that the CTMO is required to examine well over 2,000,000 applications per year? 

商标局内部现有多少审查员？商标评审委员会内部有多少审查员？商标局据说需每年审查两百多万件商标申请，目前的审查员人数能够完成这么大的工作量吗？
