9. Refund of fees
9.3 Refund of additional search fees and, where applicable, the protest fee
If the Review Panel finds that a protest was entirely justified, the additional search fees and the protest fee will be refunded.
If it finds that the protest was justified only in part, the corresponding additional search fees will be refunded, but not the protest fee (see GL/PCT‑EPO B‑VII, 7.2).
