The Arbitration Act 1996: A Commentary, Fourth Edition

The Arbitration Act 1996 radically changed English arbitration law in a number of respects. The effects of those changes are still developing and are being reflected in decisions of the courts.This section by section commentary on the Act, which Lord Bingham described as “intensely practical and admirably user-friendly” when it was first published, has been updated in a fourth edition which features comments on more than 125 new cases decided since the last edition was written in May 2003.As a result of these cases, and some changes to subsidiary legislation, the commentary on a great majority of the sections of Part 1 of the Act (the crucial part for most practitioners) has been amended, sometimes substantially. The book continues to provide checklists of choices which those involved in arbitrations need to consider, together with drafting suggestions and model agreements.Written by three practising arbitrators, this new edition continues to provide the most readable and useful guide to the Act. It is an essential handbook for all who are concerned with English arbitration.Content: Chapter 1 Materials (pages 1–22): Chapter 2 Introductory (pages 29–46): Chapter 3 The Arbitration Agreement (pages 51–59): Chapter 4 Stay of Legal Proceedings (pages 62–76): Chapter 5 Commencement of Arbitral Proceedings (pages 78–87): Chapter 6 The Arbitral Tribunal (pages 91–122): Chapter 7 Jurisdiction of the Arbitral Tribunal (pages 151–162): Chapter 8 The Arbitral Proceedings (pages 166–201): Chapter 9 Powers of Court in Relation to Arbitral Proceedings (pages 206–221): Chapter 10 The Award (pages 226–273): Chapter 11 Costs of the Arbitration (pages 274–299): Chapter 12 Powers of the Court in Relation to Award (pages 300–355): Chapter 13 Miscellaneous (pages 357–367): Chapter 14 Supplementary (pages 369–391): Chapter 15 Domestic Arbitration Agreements (pages 396–399): Chapter 16 Consumer Arbitration Agreements (pages 404–406): Chapter 17 Small Claims Arbitration in the County Court (pages 408–409): Chapter 18 Appointment of Judges as Arbitrators (pages 409–410): Chapter 19 Statutory Arbitrations (pages 411–418): Chapter 20 Enforcement of Geneva Convention Awards (pages 419–421): Chapter 21 Recognition and Enforcement of New York Convention Awards (pages 422–437): Chapter 22 General Provisions (pages 438–447): Chapter 23 Schedules (pages 448–462): Chapter 24 SI 1996 No. 3146 (C.96) Arbitration the Arbitration Act 1996 (Commencement No. 1) Order 1996 (pages 467–470): Chapter 25 Section 103 – Refusal of Recognition or Enforcement (pages 431–479): Chapter 26 The Arbitration Act 1950, Part II (pages 480–487): Chapter 28 Table of Cases (pages 488–497): Chapter 27 Index to Commentary (pages 498–507):
