of the Convention. Article 33
of the Convention. 66 After the Secretariat had repeatedly pointed to the option of promoting a liberal approach to the form requirement of Article II(2) through the more-favorable-law provision in Article VII(1),67 it proposed to adopt a recommendation according to which Article VII(1) should be applied to the recognition of the validity of arbitration agreements.68 In its 44th session in 2006, the Working Group decided that the recommendation should include both Article II(2) and VII(1).69 The draft recommendation received favorable comments from a number of 21 States.70 In its 39th session, the Commission, when considering the revised Article 7 of the Model Law, observed that state courts tended to interpret the New York Convention in light of the provisions of the Model Law and that the revised draft would indicate to States that the written form requirement contained in Article II(2) should be interpreted in a more liberal manner.71 Later in the same session, the Commission changed the name of the instrument from “declaration” to “recom- mendation”72 and finally adopted it at its 834th meeting on July 7, 2006.73
