2. Antigua and Barbuda is a party to the New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards(2) which was adopted on 10th June 1958 and came into force in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland on 23rd December 1975.

Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order declares Antigua and Barbuda as a party to the New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards. It had been intended to declare that country in the Arbitration (Foreign Awards) Order 1989 but that Order misdescribed it as "Antigua and Barbados" and Barbados itself is not a party to the Convention. Accordingly, the 1989 Order is amended by deleting the reference in the Schedule to Antigua and Barbados.

Cmnd. 6419.

(3)

S.I. 1989/1348.
