論地方立法的創新路徑──以《鎮江香醋保護條例》第15條第2款為例

On the Innovative Path of Local Legislation-- Taking the Zhenjiang Vinegar Protection Regulation as an Example

《鎮江香醋保護條例》是地方立法探索創新路徑的一個案例。在制定過程中，經廣泛調研得知，多年以來鎮江香醋集體商標與地理標誌產品專用標誌保護在法律適用上存在衝突，面臨諸多問題，假冒注冊商標屢禁不止，集體商標、地理標誌遭不當使用，法律衝突亟待解決，而其原因是多方面的。對此，在地方立法徵求意見中，出現了“統一管理說＂“同時申請說＂“商標保護說＂和“規範使用說＂等多種可能的解決方案。經過研究，集體商標和地理標誌產品保護均應當得到法律支持，在兩者間取得平衡方為正當，為此條例最終採納了“規範使用說＂之“不得突出使用＂意見，從而創造性地制定了集體商標與專用標誌保護問題的第15條第2款。這一地方立法案例驗證了地方立法創新的合理性，同時表明了地方立法創新必須在“不抵觸＂原則約束之下且必須符合法律精神，把握規律性，增強針對性。

The Zhenjiang Vinegar Protection Regulation is a case for exploring the innovative path of local legislation. There have been many problems over the past years because of the coexistence of the collective trademark and geographical indication products of Zhenjiang Vinegar, such as the application of the law, the repeatedly counterfeit registered trademarks, the improper use of collective marks or geographical indications, and other legal conflicts. Those problems are caused by various factors. In this regard, some people proposed solutions like a unified management system, concurrent application, trademark protection, standardized use and other possible solutions. This paper suggests that in order to keep the balance between the two parties collective trademark and geographical indication product protection should both be legally supported. This example demonstrates the rationality of the innovative local legislation, and shows that innovative local legislation must be under the constraints of the principle of no conflict and fall in line with the spirit of law.
