This event will feature a discussion on the amendments to the now 27-year-old statute (and will focus on a few missed opportunities). 

It will introduce the audience to the main provisions of the existing Arbitration Bill and how some of its changes have occurred since it was first presented by the Law Commission in 2023, and will focus in particular on the law applicable to the arbitration agreement and summary determination by tribunals.
