Paragraph 123 Scrutiny of awards by ACAS

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

Before being sent to the parties, awards may be scrutinised by ACAS to check for clerical or computational mistakes, errors arising from accidental slips or omissions, ambiguities, or errors of form. Without affecting the arbitrator’s liberty of decision, ACAS may refer the award back to the arbitrator (under the provisions below) in order to draw his or her attention to any such point.
