Key Principle

A tribunal's complete failure to deal with a central issue put to it - here the respondent state's 'counterfactual'/causation case that the investment would have failed irrespective of any treaty breach - is a serious irregularity under s.68(2)(d) of the Arbitration Act 1996 causing substantial injustice, justifying remission of the award.
