Investment-treaty arbitration may be attractive when the contractual dispute-resolution mechanisms are frustrated or unavailable, or for broader strategic reasons. The approach to treaty arbitration is not a matter of last resort but rather a path that is well-trodden, and may well lead to recovery. The article concludes with a practical guide, in the form of a flowchart, about the availability of treaty claims in construction disputes.<\/p>\n<p>REPORTS<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.westlaw.com.au\/maf\/wlau\/app\/document?tocGuid=AUNZ_AU_JOURNALS_TOC%7C%7CI461aba55626011e98b44b29f3622255f&amp;parentguid=AUNZ_AU_JOURNALS_TOC%7C%7CI461aba64626011e98b44b29f3622255f&amp;epos=1&amp;startChunk=1&amp;tocDs=AUNZ_AU_JOURNALS_TOC&amp;endChunk=1&amp;isTocNav=true&amp;ipuser=false&amp;docguid=I461aba59626011e98b44b29f3622255f&amp;resultType=list\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Actron Investments Queensland Pty Ltd v DEQ Consulting Pty Ltd<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.westlaw.com.au\/maf\/wlau\/app\/document?tocGuid=AUNZ_AU_JOURNALS_TOC%7C%7CI461aba5c626011e98b44b29f3622255f&amp;parentguid=AUNZ_AU_JOURNALS_TOC%7C%7CI461aba64626011e98b44b29f3622255f&amp;epos=1&amp;startChunk=1&amp;tocDs=AUNZ_AU_JOURNALS_TOC&amp;endChunk=1&amp;isTocNav=true&amp;ipuser=false&amp;docguid=I461aba51626011e98b44b29f3622255f&amp;resultType=list\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Mann v Paterson Constructions Pty Ltd<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.westlaw.com.au\/maf\/wlau\/app\/document?tocGuid=AUNZ_AU_JOURNALS_TOC%7C%7CI461aba53626011e98b44b29f3622255f&amp;parentguid=AUNZ_AU_JOURNALS_TOC%7C%7CI461aba64626011e98b44b29f3622255f&amp;epos=1&amp;startChunk=1&amp;tocDs=AUNZ_AU_JOURNALS_TOC&amp;endChunk=1&amp;isTocNav=true&amp;ipuser=false&amp;docguid=I461aba5e626011e98b44b29f3622255f&amp;resultType=list\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Ian Street Developer Pty Ltd v Arrow International Pty Ltd<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For the PDF version of the table of contents, click here: <a href=\"https:\/\/sites.thomsonreuters.com.au\/journals\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/04\/BCL-Vol-34-No-6-Contents-1.pdf\">BCL Vol 34 No 6 Contents<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2DrgQ5z\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here to access this Part on Westlaw AU<\/a><\/p>\n<p>For general queries, please contact: tlranz.journal.orders@thomsonreuters.com.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The latest Part of the Building and Construction Law Journal includes the following articles: &#8220;Notices, Time Bars and Proportionality: \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Sir Rupert Jackson; and &#8220;Construction Disputes as Treaty Claims: A Claim by Another Name&#8221; \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Leon Firios and Kanaga Dharmananda SC.
