RE: So why would Morocco (and OCP) not have settled already?13 Sep 2025 14:52
There will be very limited information released by the ICISD (see their website for examples) besides what is termed "Procedural Details" in the EML case until decisions are announced. Technically, the rules governing what is disclosed are defined in the Bilateral investment Treaty between UK and Morocco. So far the procedural information is:-
May 23, 2025 - The Secretary-General registers a request for the institution of arbitration proceedings.
August 5, 2025 - Following appointment by the Claimants, Stanimir A. Alexandrov (Bulgarian) accepts his appointment as arbitrator.
August 15, 2025 - Following appointment by the Respondent, Zachary Douglas KC, a national of Australia and Switzerland accepts his appointment as arbitrator.
EML and Morocco, are unlikely to make any substantial comment on the detail of the proceedings.
