Arbitration Act 1976

This Act provides rules for arbitration. This Act also applies to an arbitration to which the Government is a party; but nothing in this Act empowers the Court to order any proceedings to which the Government is a party, or a question or issue in any such proceedings, to be tried before an arbitrator or officer without the consent of the Attorney General. The Act provides for, among other things: appointment of arbitrator or umpire; power of Court to remove arbitrator or set aside award and power of Court where arbitrator is removed or appointment of arbitrator is revoked; and effect of foreign awards and conditions for enforcement of foreign awards.
