This year our survey topic is the reform of the Arbitration Act 1996.
On 30 November 2021, the Law Commission announced that it would be conducting a review of the Arbitration Act 1996. We decided to use this year’s survey as an opportunity to canvas views on the Act, potential areas of reform and to share the results of the survey with the Law Commission as part of the on-going consultation process.
The aim of the Law Commission’s review is to maintain the attractiveness of England and Wales as a “destination” for dispute resolution and the pre-eminence of English Law as a choice of law.
