REGULATION OF RAILWAYS ACT 1873 - SECT 8

Differences between railway and canal companies to be referred to Commissioners.

8. Where any difference between railway companies or between canal companies,
or between a railway company and a canal company, is, under the provisions of
any general or special Act, passed either before or after the passing of
this Act, required or authorised to be referred to arbitration, such
difference shall at the instance of any company party to the difference and
with the consent of the Commissioners be referred to the Commissioners for
their decision in lieu of being referred to arbitration: Provided, that the
power of compelling a reference to the Commissioners in this section contained
shall not apply to any case in which any arbitrator has in any general or
special Act been designated by his name or by the name of his office, or in
which, a standing arbitrator having been appointed under any general or
special Act, the Commissioners are of opinion that the difference in question
may more conveniently be referred to him.
