Section 242(3)

Where an exclusive licence is in force in respect of the design— if the licence was granted for royalties— any agreement between the design right owner and a government department under section 241 (settlement of terms for Crown use) requires the consent of the licensee, and the licensee is entitled to recover from the design right owner such part of the payment for Crown use as may be agreed between them or, in default of agreement, determined by the court; if the licence was granted otherwise than for royalties— section 241 applies in relation to anything done which but for section 240 (Crown use) and subsection (1) above would be an infringement of the rights of the licensee with the substitution for references to the design right owner of references to the licensee, and section 241 does not apply in relation to anything done by the licensee by virtue of an authority given under section 240.
