A response to the Law Commission’s consultation paper Review of the Arbitration Act
In response to the Law Commission’s Consultation Paper Review of the Arbitration Act, we offer responses to questions 7, 14, 16, 27, 31 and 36, and some thoughts on third party funding. Our views are as follows.
- Adopt the provisions on non-discrimination (Q7)
- Adopt the ‘manifestly without merit language’ in relation to summary awards (Q14)
- Consider adopting express rules on court orders against third parties (Q16)
- Exclude treaty arbitrations from the scope of s 69 (Q27)
- Keep open the issue as to the validity of electronic signatures (Q31)
- Keep open the issue of the particular needs of consumer and SME arbitrations (Q36), and
- Consider provisions on disclosure of third party funding (paras 11.13-17)

- Keep open the issue as to the validity of electronic signatures (Q31)
- Keep open the issue of the particular needs of consumer and SME arbitrations (Q36), and
