Annual Aggregate Report
Purpose of the report
The Annual Aggregate Report discharges the institution’s commitment to public accountability. It records, in aggregate, the matters administered, the timelines kept, the procedural pathways elected, the seats and venues used, and the disposition of awards. No party, counsel, arbitrator, or matter-specific detail is disclosed. Confidentiality of every individual proceeding is preserved without compromise.
The report is one of the institution’s instruments of self-discipline. A timeline that is published cannot be quietly missed.
What the report contains
- Caseload table — matters commenced, matters disposed, carried-forward at year-end, by procedural track.
- Timeline performance — median and percentile distribution of constitution-to-award duration, by track. Variance against published timeline reported with reasoned aggregate explanation.
- Pathway distribution — arbitration / mediation / Arb-Med-Arb / ODR / fast-track shares of total caseload.
- Seat and venue distribution — seats nominated by parties, hearing venue formats (physical, online, hybrid).
- Panel composition — aggregate panel diversity by jurisdiction, language capability, and sectoral specialisation; gender representation.
- Award outcomes — aggregate disposition (allowed in full, allowed in part, dismissed, settled by consent award, withdrawn). Quantified relief is not disclosed.
- Procedural notes — rule revisions adopted during the year; secretariat operational notes; any institutional incidents requiring disclosure.
