Private Parties and the Permanent Court of Arbitration
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 21 July 2009
Extract
As early as 1952 I launched the idea of enhancing the use of the PCA by making its arbitration facilities accessible for arbitration between states and private parties. A few years later I was requested by the Secretary-General, at that time, Prof. Francois, to draw up draft arbitration rules for this purpose. These rules, as elaborated by the International Bureau of the PCA, became the 1962 Rules of Arbitration and Conciliation for Settlement of International Disputes between Two Parties of Which Only One is a State, hereafter referred to as the 1962 Rules.
