Notes to chapter v on the jurisdiction of the arbitral tribunal in the draft arbitration law of 2024

Through the text of Article 17 / First, we find that the legislator did not specify a controlling criterion - for the Commission - when providing the acceptable reason for accepting late defenses, in addition, the flexibility of the term (acceptable reason) leads to find a justification for the opponent in procrastination and prolonging the dispute. Therefore, the text should be redrafted to amend the deadlines for the submission of arguments provided for in article 17, and setting a controlling standard for fixing the admissible cause.
