[Gnso-igo-ingo-crp] Follow up from WG call on Thursday 11 May 2017 at 1600 UTC

[Mary Wong]

Dear Working Group members,

As requested on the call last Thursday, please find attached copies of: (1) the New York Convention for the Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards; and (2) the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules. Note that their scope is very different - the Convention is the main international treaty that specifies the conditions and process of recognition by national courts of a foreign arbitration award, whereas the UNCITRAL Rules are a well-known set of procedural rules that can be chosen by parties in a commercial dispute to govern the arbitration between them. The UNCITRAL Rules do not, however, specify a particular venue or dispute resolution provider to manage the arbitration proceeding.

You can also find these texts as well as additional information and background, respectively, at: http://www.newyorkconvention.org/ and http://www.uncitral.org/uncitral/en/uncitral_texts/arbitration/2010Arbitration_rules.html.

Finally, staff is currently working on a draft of a document outlining the pros/cons for Options 1 and 2 in relation to the Working Group’s preliminary recommendation #4. We hope to circulate this as soon as we can so that members can review and discuss this topic via this mailing list in lieu of a meeting this week (the next Working Group meeting is scheduled to take place next week – 25 May – instead).

Thanks and cheers
Mary
