Why Arbitrate? (Staple Inn Reading 2002)

Anthony Butcher

British Actuarial Journal, 2002, vol. 8, issue 5, 931-942

Abstract: The lecture considers the subject of arbitration as a means of determining otherwise irreconcilable disputes. Although arbitration may be required over a wide range of subjects, the lecturer's considerable experience has been in the area of construction. He outlines how arbitration was carried out in the 1950s and the relationship between arbitrators and arbitrations and the courts. Since that time there have been radical changes to improve the system, and these are described, particularly the various Acts of Parliament relevant to the subject. The lecturer concludes that currently construction arbitration is in good heart, but that too much paper is still being generated.
