There are still enforcement issues with this process including the inability to bind third parties who are not privy to the arbitration agreement (such as banks where an order is sought freezing funds).
The Court may, on considering your notification, arrange for the application to be set down for a formal hearing
if the application has yet to be determined or for a rehearing if the application has already been determined.
