Dispute Resolution Process

The process for dispute resolution aims to be a clear, fair, and efficient process for resolving disputes under law. It prioritises negotiated settlement and aims to minimise cost, time, and disruption. It operates under the below principles: · Negotiation First: Parties must make every reasonable effort to resolve disputes amicably through direct negotiation. · Good Faith: All parties shall act honestly and fairly throughout the process. · Proportionality: Resolution methods should be proportionate to the nature and complexity of the dispute. In the event of an escalation, disputes will follow the below steps: Step 1: Informal Negotiation · The initiating party shall notify the other party in writing. · Both parties will attempt resolution within a reasonable period of notice. Step 2: Executive-Level Review · If unresolved, the matter shall escalate to the Executive Team for structured discussion and decision-making. · A written summary of the dispute and prior attempts at resolution must be provided. Step 3: Mediation (Exception Basis) · If executive review fails, parties may agree to mediation. · Costs of mediation shall be shared equally unless otherwise agreed. Step 4: Legal Proceedings (Final Resort) · Litigation or arbitration shall only be pursued when all other steps have been exhausted.
