Courts everywhere have to find a balance between respecting the finality of an arbitral award and upholding the public policy of the land. This balance is all the more delicate when illegality is alleged. Case law has been inconsistent. In AJT v AJU [2011] 4 SLR 739, the Court of Appeal in Singapore took a stand.
In this seminar scheduled for 31 Jan 2012, the speakers, Mr Michael Hwang, SC and Mr Chan Leng Sun, SC will discuss the case and address the issue of breach of confidentiality. “Singapore Law on Arbitral Awards“ by Academy Publishing will also be launched by The Honourable Attorney-General, Mr Sundaresh Menon, SC.
