  2. mediation produces legal precedents
  3. mediation can be used as a stalling tactic
  4. mediation is expensive
  5. mediation involves a third party who makes a judgement on the issue

Answer(s): A,C

Explanation:

The correct answers are 1 and 3. The other options are false; Mediation does not produce legal precedents- only litigation can do this. Mediation is a cheap dispute resolution option (much cheaper than arbitration or litigation) and the third party has no authority on the matter- they are there as a facilitator of dialogue, not to make a judgement. For more information on mediation see p.74

  1. adjudicators are appointed at random and therefore may not have specific knowledge of the subject matter
  2. the decision making process can be lengthy and expensive
  3. parties are expected to present their cases in person in front of the adjudicator
  4. the decision made by the adjudicator is binding and usually communicated within 28 days

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

4

The true statement is 'the decision made by the adjudicator is binding and usually communicated within 28 days'. The other three are false- adjudicators are usually experts in their field, the decision making process has a tight timescale and parties present their arguments in writing. This is the only written conflict resolution method.
