SCHEDULETHE LABOUR RELATIONS AGENCY (FLEXIBLE WORKING) ARBITRATION SCHEME

V SCOPE OF THE SCHEME

Waiver of jurisdictional issues

18.  Accordingly, when agreeing to refer a dispute to arbitration under the Scheme, both parties will be taken to have accepted as a condition of the Scheme that no jurisdictional issue is in dispute between them. The arbitrator will not therefore deal with such issues during the arbitration process, even if they are raised by the parties, and the parties will be taken to have waived any rights in that regard.
