On December 9 the framework law to reform  civil proceedings was published in the Official Gazette. Some of the proposed changes introduced in the world of arbitration, such as granting arbitrators powers to order interim relief, are of historic importance, whilst others appear less significant. In any case, to assess the final effects of the reform, we will have to wait for the delegated decrees, which will have to detail the principles set out in it.

Our International Arbitration Focus Team analyzes paragraph 15 of the sole article of the reform, dedicated to arbitration, in the document available here.
