Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask His Majesty's Government what plans they have to ratify the United Nations Convention on International Settlement Agreements Resulting from Mediation; and by when they expect it will be ratified.
Answered by Baroness Levitt
The Government recognises the important role that mediation can play in resolving commercial disputes and promoting access to justice, alongside other dispute resolution methods such as litigation and arbitration.
The UK signed the United Nations Convention on International Settlement Agreements Resulting from Mediation (known as the Singapore Convention) in May 2023. The Government is currently consulting stakeholders in the UK legal and mediation sectors, and other experts, on how the Convention could be implemented in domestic law. We are committed to ratifying the Convention once all the necessary domestic implementing measures are in place.
