(e) the composition of the arbitral tribunal or the arbitral
                        procedure  was  not  in  accordance  with  the  agreement  of  the
                        parties  to  the  dispute  or,  in  the  case  where  the  parties  to  the
                        dispute  have  not  otherwise  agreed,  such  composition  was
                        contrary to this law.

                        (2) It is apparent to the Court that:
                               (a) the award deals with the subject-matter which is not
                        capable of settlement by arbitration under the law; or

                               (b) the recognition or enforcement of the award shall be
                        contrary to public order or good morals.

                    The Court may  adjourn the  setting aside proceedings as it  deems
                appropriate in order to for the arbitral tribunal to resume the proceedings
                or  to  take  such  other  action  as  in  the  arbitral  tribunal’s  opinion  will
                                                 166
                eliminate the grounds for setting aside .
                    Concerning the enforcement of the arbitral award, the party seeking
                enforcement of the arbitral award shall file with the competent Court a
                motion  within  three  years  as  from  the  date  on  which  the  award  is
                enforceable. The Court shall expeditiously conduct an inquiry and render
                        167
                judgment .
                    The Court is empowered to issue an order refusing enforcement of an
                arbitral award, irrespective of the country in which it was made, if the
                party against whom it is invoked furnishes proof that:

                        (1) a party to the arbitration agreement was under some incapacity
                under the law applicable to that party;

                        (2) the arbitration agreement is not binding under the law of the
                country to which the contractual parties have agreed or, in the case of no
                such agreement, under the  law of the country where such  award was
                made;

                166  Section 40 Arbitration Act 2002
                167  Section 42 Arbitration Act 2002
