Arab League to discuss arbitrator database and unified legal documentation

The Arab League’s Arab Centre for Legal and Judicial Research is holding its 34th meeting of deans and directors of Arab judicial institutes on Wednesday.

The centre operates under the Council of Arab Justice Ministers, bringing the meeting within the league’s framework for legal and judicial cooperation.

Discussions are to address the creation of a database of arbitrators and the standardisation of legal documentation.

The brief announcement did not provide details on the proposed database’s scope or the documentation procedures under consideration. It also did not indicate whether the meeting would lead to formal decisions on either proposal.
