  • The Building and Construction Industry Security of Payment Act 1999 (NSW) (the NSW Act) is a unique form of statutory regulation for the building and construction industry, which gives virtually all industry participants a statutory right to, and a means of recovering, payments for work done under a construction contract. The research aim is to examine current trends in adjudication applications and determinations under the NSW Act. The data used for this study was the collected by the NSW Office of Finance & Services as part of a regular reporting regime for the period from 1 July 2013 and ending on 30 June 2014. With just over 817 adjudication applications having been made over the 2013/14 period, the data indicates that adjudication is being frequently utilized by stakeholders in the NSW building and construction industry as a means of progress payment recovery. Adjudication is proving to be a popular choice for those making claims of less than AU$250,000. Claimants were awarded about 36% of the total of claimed amounts and claimants are generally successful at adjudication in terms of the proportion of the claimed amounts determined in their favour. This is particularly so in relation to claims of less than $100,000, which represents about 70% of the total applications made over the reporting period. The data indicates that adjudication fees are generally modest enough to conclude that adjudication provides claimants across all claim ranges with a relatively inexpensive means of having disputed progress payments determined by an independent adjudicator.

  • The Building and Construction Industry Security of Payment Act 1999 (NSW) (the Act) is a unique form of statutory regulation for the building and construction industry, which gives virtually all industry participants a statutory right to, and a means of recovering, payments for work done under a construction contract. The research aim is to examine current trends in adjudication applications and determinations under the Act. The research reveals: (a) that the adjudication process is encouraging parties to resolve disputes as to payment (b) that there is low level of awareness and understanding of the provisions of the Act, particularly amongst subcontractors; (c) that claimants making small claims experience a high rate of success at adjudication; and (d) that the indirect cost of adjudication is becoming problematic.

  • 노동위원회의 심판제도는 부당해고사건과 부당노동행위사건을 신속하게 해결한다는 점에서 분쟁해결의 중요한 장점을 가지고 있지만 여러 가지 비판을 받고 있다. 본 논문은 노동위원회 심판기능의 효율성을 실증적으로 분석하고 노사분쟁을 보다 효과적으로 해결할 수 있는 방안을 제시한다. 분석결과는 노동심판제도에 대한 불만이 분쟁해결의 결과보다는 분쟁해결의 과정에 기인하고 있다는 점을 보여준다. 또한 노동심판제도의 문제점도 노사 당사자의 의식이나 태도보다는 노동위원회의 위원이나 심사관의 자세나 자질 등에 기인하는 바가 크다는 점을 보여준다. 이것은 사건에 대한 노동위원회의 조사활동이 보다 충실하게 이루어져야 하고, 노사 당사자가 자신의 주장을 충분히 뒷받침할 수 있도록 심문회의의 진행방식과 위원들의 심문태도가 개선되어야 하며, 판정을 하는 경우 그 내용이 실효성을 가질 수 있도록 적절해야 하며, 판정이 존중받을 수 있도록 법적 판단에 대한 권위도 확보해야 한다는 점을 시사한다.

  • Bankruptcy proceedings serve the purpose of the collective satisfaction of the debtor's creditors through the realisation of the debtor's assets and the distribution of the proceeds therefrom. Upon the adjudication bankruptcy, the debtor's right to administer and dispose of the property belonging to the bankruptcy estate shall be vested in the administrator. If a mutual contract was not or not completely fulfilled by the debtor and the other party at the time of the adjudication of bankruptcy, the administrator has right to choose wether to fulfil or terminate the contractual relation. Legal acts that have been conducted prior to the adjudication of bankruptcy and that are detrimental to the debtor's creditors may be contested by the administrator. However, these effects of bankruptcy will have not great influence on the arbitration agreement between the debtor and another party. An arbitration agreement that has been conducted prior to the adjudication of bankruptcy is binding the administrator as an universal legal successor of debtor. Only the arbitration agreement directly disadvantageous to the debtor's creditors may be contested by the administrator. Furthermore, it is not at the discretion of administrator whether or not to submit the dispute to arbitration because an arbitration agreement does not belong under the category of Art. 50 Korean bankruptcy Act which demands a mutual contract. Arbitral proceeding upon the property of the bankruptcy estate and pending for the debtor as plaintiff or against the debtor as defendant at the date of the adjudication of bankruptcy may be taken up at the given status by the administrator. This leads to a change of the party. If a duly summoned party fails to appear in arbitration court, the arbitrator, if satisfied there is no valid excuse, may continue the proceedings and make the award as if all the parties were present. This may be disadvantagious to the debtor's creditors because the arbitral award have the same effects on the participants as the final and conclusive judgement of the court. Even if there is a change of party on side of debtor to the administrator in bankruptcy, the arbitral proceedings will not be automatically postponed or suspended. The matter of how to proceed is at discretion of administrator, when the parties haven't agree on the arbitral proceedings. He can continue the arbitral proceedings without to grant an adjournment of hearing. However, an arbitration award may be challenged by a party dissatisfied and set aside by the court based upon the misconduct that violates the basic rights of the parties to a fair hearing. The arbitrator must treat the parties equally in the arbitral proceedings and give each party a full opportunity to present his case. The arbitrator, therefore, will carefully exercise his discretion in determining whether to continue the arbitral proceedings or to grant a postponing. In the practice, the arbitral proceedings may be usually postponed to grant due process.

  • The adjudication of Korean Maritime Safety Tribunal (KMST) was analyzed to collect basic data to identify the cause of the risk that did not appear in the current data provided by the fishermen's occupational accidents of the National Federation of Fisheries Cooperative (NFFC) in stow net fishing vessel from 2015 to 2019. The personnel's carelessness was the most common in 29 out of 33 accidents (87.9%), followed by 25 cases (75.8%) of inadequacy of instructions, 24 cases (72.7%) of inadequacy of education on hazard factor, 20 cases (60.6%) of no personal protection equipment, 18 cases (54.5%) of poor guard, 17 cases (51.5%) of inadequacy of work method, 16 cases (48.5%) of absence of emergency stop button, 14 cases (42.4%) of work practice of poor safety precautions that affected more than 40% of all accidents as accident causes. These causes had a strong influence on each other, and the ratio of accident causes is high. With this relationship, accidents can be prevented or the severity of human injury can be reduced if types of accident process can be estimated with a scenario, and the key points before the accident in the scenario are switched to safe points.

  • India is one of the fast growing country in the world. For the acceleration of economic growth of India, it is indispensable for Indian government to construct infrastructure, such as railroad, airport, harbor, power plant, and water management system. For example, Modi, prime minister of federal government of India proclaimed that Indian government plans to construct 100 smart cities in 2015. In recent times, India is expected to be the largest recipient of Public-Private Partnership(PPP) type projects in the world. Owing to PPP, it is possible for India to pursue her objective to transform the whole economy into digital economy beyond agricultural society. One of major problem related with implementation of PPP type projects is the growth of disputes concomitant to the rising phenomena of PPP type projects in order to build infrastructure in India. Because of this, non-negligible number of projects has been cancelled during last two decades. This study investigates seven failure cases of PPP in India. Those include Nabi mumbai airport, Dabhol power plant, Munbai water project, and Kolkata subway project. Main types of dispute resolution are mediation or conciliation, dispute review board, arbitration, expert adjudication in PPP.

  • Early neutral evaluation (ENE) is a fairly recent form of alternative dispute resolution procedure used in the construction industry. In the UK, ENE is usually carried out on an entirely without prejudice basis, however the parties may agree that any or part of it may be referred to at trial or any subsequent hearing. The early neutral evaluation consists of a preliminary assessment of the issues in dispute for use as a basis for negotiations which may result in a settlement of the dispute. An independent person is appointed by the parties who reviews the case and provides an opinion, in written form and in some detail, with reasons on the merits of the matters in dispute. The opinion is non-binding but provides the parties with what in the opinion of the independent person a formal tribunal may decide whether a court or an arbitrator, if the dispute is not resolved. However, ENE has yet to take off in the construction industry in the UK. This paper will explain this procedure and explore the use of it in the UK and internationally, considering the benefits and drawbacks of its use. It will consider whether or not it is more effective than other early resolution forms such as mediation and adjudication. It will argue and conclude that it is a very useful cost effective procedure, particularly in the resolution of complex disputes, whether local or international.

  • 벌금형은 형벌체계상 자유형보다 가벼운 형벌로 규정되어 있지만, 자본주의 사회에서는 범죄행위자에게 실질적으로 자유형 못지않은 강력한 제재 수단으로 자리매김하고 있다. 또한 자연인인 개인보다 법인이 저지르는 경제사범, 조세범, 기업범죄에서는 범죄 규모가 클 뿐만 아니라 다른 형사제재 수단이 없는 경우에 사용되는 벌금형을 통한 제재는 형사제재 방법으로서 중요한 가치를 지니고 있다. 그렇지만 우리나라의 벌금형제도는 총액벌금형제도로서 부유한 사람에게는 형벌의 위하적 기능을 수행할 수 없고, 벌금형의 액수에 차이가 많은데도, 벌금형의 실효기간을 똑같게 함으로써 형사재판에서 가장 많이 차지하는 선고형임에도 불구하고, 그 기능을 제대로 수행하고 있다고 할 수 없다. 따라서 현대적 형벌로서 가치를 수행하기 위해서는 총액벌금형제도는 일수벌금형제도로 변경할 필요가 있고, 낮은 벌금형제도는 형법의 보충성 원칙에 따라 범칙금제도로 대체하여 사회적 비난이 낮은 범죄행위자의 개인정보를 보호함과 동시에 형벌의 기능수행을 정상적으로 할 수 있어야 할 것이다. 이와 더불어 벌금형을 선고하는 절차적인 면에서도 피고인의 방어권을 최대한 보장할 수 있는 시스템이 도입되어야 할 필요가 있다. 특히 약식절차에서는 기소와 재판절차가 서면으로만 이루어지면서 피고인의 방어권이 보장되지 못하는 점을 보완하기 위하여 약식명령으로 청구하기 전에 피의자에게 약식절차에 관계되는 필요한 사항을 설명하여 이해시키고, 피고인의 동의를 받을 수 있는 제도의 도입도 필요하다.
