The Chartered Institute of Arbitrators expresses its sincere condolences to the family, friends and colleagues of Thomas D Halket who sadly died on 24 November 2021 after a short illness.

We are delighted to announce that CIArb has been awarded the contract to be the sole provider of Arbitration Referral Services to the Pubs Code Adjudicator (PCA).

Following a consultation earlier this year, the Law Commission of England and Wales has today confirmed it will conduct a review of the Arbitration Act 1996, the principal legislation governing arbitration in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

There’s a lot of talk about the future currently. In Glasgow at COP26, world leaders debate the ways to avoid an environmental catastrophe later in the century.

In 2020, we shared a summary of Kabab-Ji SAL v Kout Food Group. Even though the case covers many significant legal issues, one of them is of particularly high importance for the arbitration community.

As part of our commitment to tackling climate change and delivering a net-zero world, the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators (CIArb) is delighted to become a formal supporter of the Net Zero Lawyers Alliance (NZLA).
