s 24 Statements of claim and defence
24.—(1) Within the period of time agreed by the parties or, failing such agreement, as determined by the arbitral tribunal, the claimant must state —(a) the facts supporting the claimant’s claim; (b) the points at issue; and (c) the relief or remedy sought, and the respondent must state the respondent’s defence in respect of the particulars set out in this subsection, unless the parties have otherwise agreed to the required elements of such statements. (2) The parties may submit to the arbitral tribunal with their statements, all documents they consider to be relevant or other documents which refer to those documents, or other evidence. (3) Except as otherwise agreed by the parties, either party may amend or supplement his, her or its claim or defence during the course of the arbitral proceedings, unless the arbitral tribunal considers it inappropriate to allow the amendment, having regard to the delay in making the amendment.[12/2012]
