List of arbitrators - ICE Dispute Administration Service

A new procedure was clearly needed to comply with the requirements of the Arbitration Act 1996 and the ICE is the first arbitral body to produce a revised procedure. The emphasis of the new Procedure is to put the arbitrator firmly in command so that effects of delaying tactics by one party may be kept to a minimum. The ICE has taken the view that the arbitration should be a simple and efficient means of dispute resolution and so the Procedure must be readily understandable by those involved in disputes. The ICE Arbitration Procedure does this with both simplicity and clarity."
