Reform of arbitration law: the Law Commission's final report

After over two years of investigation and consultation, including the production of two Consultation Papers, the Law Commission on 5 September published its "Review of the Arbitration Act 1996: Final Report and Bill", HC 1787. It contains a series of important reforms to the 1996 Act and a draft Bill. The measure is non-contentious and so there is no reason why it should not be implemented into English law in the near future irrespective of the political colour of the government. The Report, in addition to providing the blueprint for reform, contains a good deal of detailed analysis of the law.
