On 19 March 2013, the Qatar International Center for Conciliation and Arbitration (QICCA) and the Australian Centre for International Commercial Arbitration (ACICA) signed a co-operation agreement in Doha. The agreement will support the movement of trade and investment between Qatar and Australia and will strengthen the ties between the two institutions to promote effective dispute resolution. Co-operation agreements generally provide for the institutions to share facilities, services, information and expertise to facilitate arbitration hearings.
