“The Final Report on the proposed Reform of the Arbitration Act” | An LSLC Event Hosted by ZFZ – 10 October 2023

An LSLC event, hosted by Zeiler Floyd Zadkovich (online and in-person)

We look forward to welcoming clients, colleagues and a truly distinguished panel to our offices for this fantastic event.

Topics are likely to include:

• When will the new rule on governing law come into effect, and how should clients react to it?
• How will the court’s new powers to support arbitration work?
• Will leaving section 69 (appeals on a point of law) unchanged hinder the development of the common law?
• Will the changes on substantive jurisdiction tilt the balance against unmeritorious challenges?
• When will the interests of justice lead the court to rehear the evidence?
• Are we missing an opportunity to fix other problems with the Act?

Moderator: Sir Jeremy Cooke

Sir Richard Aikens – Brick Court Chambers
