Investor-state Dispute Settlement Any dispute between an investor of one Party and the other Party in connection with an investment in the territory of the other Party shall, as far as possible, be settled amicably through negotiations between the parties to the dispute.
Dispute Settlement 1. A Party may not initiate proceedings under the general dispute settlement provisions of this Agreement regarding a refusal to grant temporary entry under this Chapter unless: (a) the matter involves a pattern of practice; and (b) the business person has exhausted the available administrative remedies regarding the particular matter.
2. The remedies referred to in subparagraph 1(b) shall be deemed to be exhausted if a final determination in the matter has not been issued by the competent authority within one year of the institution of an administrative proceeding, and the failure to issue a determination is not attributable to delay caused by the business person.
Notice of Dispute The party wishing to commence the dispute resolution process must give written notice (Notice of Dispute) to the other parties of:
(a) The nature of the dispute,
(b) The alleged basis of the dispute, and
(c) The position which the party issuing the Notice of Dispute believes is correct.
Notice of Disputes Notice of the dispute will be submitted on the form provided in Appendix A and sent to the responding party, in order to provide an opportunity to respond. The Crown shall be provided with a copy.
a) Notice of the dispute shall include the following:
i. Any central provision of the collective agreement alleged to have been violated.
ii. The provision of any statute, regulation, policy, guideline, or directive at issue.
iii. A comprehensive statement of any relevant facts.
iv. The remedy requested.
Independence from Material Breach Determination Except as set forth in Section X.D.1.c, these provisions for payment of Stipulated Penalties shall not affect or otherwise set a standard for OIG’s decision that Xxxxx has materially breached this IA, which decision shall be made at OIG’s discretion and shall be governed by the provisions in Section X.D, below.
Dispute Concerning Termination If within fifteen (15) days after any Notice of Termination is given, or, if later, prior to the Date of Termination (as determined without regard to this Section 7.3), the party receiving such Notice of Termination notifies the other party that a dispute exists concerning the termination, the Date of Termination shall be extended until the earlier of (i) the date on which the Term ends or (ii) the date on which the dispute is finally resolved, either by mutual written agreement of the parties or by a final judgment, order or decree of an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction (which is not appealable or with respect to which the time for appeal therefrom has expired and no appeal has been perfected); provided, however, that the Date of Termination shall be extended by a notice of dispute given by the Executive only if such notice is given in good faith and the Executive pursues the resolution of such dispute with reasonable diligence.
Dispute Notice If there is a dispute between the parties, then either party may give a notice to the other succinctly setting out the details of the dispute and stating that it is a dispute notice given under this clause 17.1.
Dispute Settlement Procedures Principles
a) This procedure is designed to promote the resolution of issues that arise at the lowest possible level and to provide a step-by-step process which will be accessed if the parties are genuinely unable to resolve the issue.
b) At each step in the procedure, reasonable time is to be allowed for the parties to resolve the matter. The parties agree not to proceed to each next step in the procedure until the previous step has been completed. Following these procedures will ensure the dispute is resolved in the most efficient manner.
c) In the event of a dispute in relation to a matter arising under this agreement, in the first instance the parties will attempt to resolve the matter at the workplace by discussions between the employee or employees concerned and the relevant supervisor and, if such discussions do not resolve the dispute, by discussions between the employee or employees concerned and more senior levels of management as appropriate. If the matter is not resolved at this level, the grievance shall be referred to the designated management representative.
d) Should the matter remain unresolved at this level, the Employee, at his/her discretion, may nominate a representative to meet with the Supervisor, the designated manager,and the Consultative Committee to resolve the issue.
e) A party to the dispute may appoint another person, organisation or association to accompany or represent them in relation to the dispute.
f) If a dispute in relation to a matter arising under the agreement is unable to be resolved at the workplace, and all agreed steps for resolving it have been taken, the dispute may be referred to the Australian Industrial Relations Commission (the Commission) for resolution by mediation and/or conciliation. Any solution proposed by the Commission or another third party must be consistent with the Construction Code and Guidelines and relevant legislation.
g) It is a term of this agreement that while the dispute resolution procedure is being conducted work shall continue normally. The circumstances that applied prior to the dispute arising shall apply until final resolution of the matter.
h) Any dispute referred to the Commission under this clause should be dealt with by a member agreed by the parties at the time or, in default of agreement, a member nominated by either the head of the relevant panel or the President.
i) This dispute resolution procedure does not apply to Occupational Health and Safety matters. It is expected that the Occupational Health and Safety Representatives will follow appropriate procedures in the resolution of any Health and Safety matters.
DISPUTE SETTLEMENT PROCEDURE A major objective of this Agreement is to eliminate lost time and/or production arising out of disputes or grievances. Disputes over any work related or industrial matter should be dealt with as close to its source as possible. Disputes over matters arising from this agreement shall be dealt with according to the following procedure. An employee or the union delegate or site xxxxxxx or Enterprise should initially submit any work related grievance and/or industrial matter to the site foreperson, supervisor or other appropriate site representative of the company or appropriate site union representative as relevant. If the matter remains unresolved the union delegate or site xxxxxxx may then submit the matter to the appropriate senior management person. Where relevant the Enterprise may submit the matter to a union official. If still not resolved the delegate or site xxxxxxx shall refer the matter to an appropriate official of the union, who shall discuss the matter with the nominated representative of the Enterprise. If still not resolved there may be discussions between the state secretary and senior management representative. Whilst the above procedures are being followed work should continue as normal. This procedure is to be followed in good faith and without unreasonable delay by any party. Should the matter remain unresolved and where the issue is within the jurisdiction of the Victorian Building Industry Disputes Board (“the Board”), either of the parties shall refer the dispute at first instance to the Board (which shall deal with the dispute in accordance with VBIA procedures and, where required, determine issues of jurisdiction). The Board’s decision will be accepted by all parties subject to the right of either party to refer the dispute to the Australian Industrial Relations Commission for conciliation and if required arbitration. The Commission’s decision will be accepted by all parties subject to legal rights of appeal. This dispute settlement procedure does not apply to health and safety issues or issues of industry, state or national significance.
Applicable Law and Dispute Settlement 17.1. This Contract shall be governed by Finnish law, excluding its rules on conflict of laws.

Article 36 on Interim measures of protection shall not apply. The language of the proceedings shall be English. The place of arbitration shall be Helsinki, Finland.
