An International Committee of the Singapore International Commercial Court will be set up in Singapore to hear prescribed appeals of international commercial disputes from prescribed foreign jurisdictions.
This was proposed under a Bill moved for second reading in Parliament on Tuesday by Minister of State for Law Murali Pillai. He described it as “a new chapter in facilitating cross-border legal cooperation” which will enhance Singapore’s offerings as a leading international centre for dispute resolution, strengthen opportunities for the development of jurisprudence beyond its shores and boost the local legal sector.
