Australian International Arbitration Act upheld as constitutionally valid | Practical Law
On 13 March 2013, the Australian High Court handed down its highly-anticipated decision in TCL Air Conditioner (Zhongshan) Co Ltd v The Judges of the Federal Court of Australia. The court considered whether the UNCITRAL Model Law, as effected by the International Arbitration Act 1974 (Commonwealth), was unconstitutional in failing to confer on the Australian Federal Court the power to review awards for errors of law in applications for enforcement of awards.
