About the law and the debate

Official summary of the law (Knesset)

The law was enacted in order to enable the government to ratify the Singapore Convention, which Israel was involved in negotiating and signed in 2019. The convention seeks to increase the use of mediation arrangements in commercial and international matters, by providing certainty that mediation arrangements will be honored and enforced in different countries, without the need to interpret each country's contract law. Accordingly, the convention establishes that the competent authorities in countries that are parties to the convention will act quickly when considering a request for relief under it, will enforce within their territory signed international mediation arrangements in commercial matters, and will allow the use of mediation agreements as a defense in legal proceedings by a party to a dispute. The law establishes that the provisions of the convention will apply only to mediation arrangements whose parties agreed that the convention would apply to them.
