Paragraph 57S Removal of arbitrators: Scottish arbitrations

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

ACAS may, after such procedure as ACAS in its sole discretion may consider appropriate, remove the arbitrator if it is satisfied:

(i)

that both parties to the arbitration agree that the arbitrator should be removed; or

(ii)

that circumstances exist that give rise to justifiable doubts as to the impartiality of the arbitration; or

(iii)

that the arbitrator is physically or mentally incapable of conducting the proceedings or there are justifiable doubts as to his or her capacity to do so.
