(1)References in this Part to an application, appeal or other step in relation to legal proceedings being taken “upon notice” to the other parties to the arbitral proceedings, or to the tribunal, are to such notice of the originating process as is required by rules of court and do not impose any separate requirement.

(b)as to the manner, form and content of any such notice.

(b)if the tribunal is not fully constituted, as a requirement to give notice to any arbitrator who has been appointed.

(4)References in this Part to making an application or appeal to the court within a specified period are to the issue within that period of the appropriate originating process in accordance with rules of court.
