Section 24
Law of arbitration other than Model Law
of International Arbitration Act
(1)
If the parties to an arbitration agreement, whether made before or after the commencement of this Act, have expressly agreed either —
(a)
that the Model Law or this Part does not apply to the arbitration; or
(b)
that the Arbitration Act (Chapter 280) or the repealed
Arbitration Act (Chapter 173) (if applicable) applies to the arbitration, then, both the Model Law and this Part do not apply to that arbitration but the
Arbitration Act (Chapter 280) or the repealed Arbitration Act (Chapter 173)
(if applicable) applies to that arbitration.
(2)
For the avoidance of doubt, a provision in an arbitration agreement referring to or adopting any rules of arbitration shall not of itself be sufficient to exclude the application of the Model Law or this Part to the arbitration concerned.
