PART 25 - JURISDICTION
1. Preliminary Remarks
232. The Claimants contend that ICSID Arbitration Rule 41(1) requires that any objection
to the jurisdiction of ICSID or the competence of the tribunal be made “as early as
possible...and in any event no later than the time fixed for the filing of the Counter-Memorial.”
233. The Claimants state that the Respondent’s objections to jurisdiction are out of time.
However, Rule 41(5) expressly permits the Respondent to raise its objections when it did. In any
event, Rule 41(2) provides that the Tribunal “on its own initiative…at any stage of the proceeding”
may consider whether the dispute is “within the jurisdiction of the Center and within its own
competence.”
268
Either way, the jurisdictional issues have been fully argued and will be addressed
by the Tribunal. The Claimants’ “preliminary” objection is rejected.
234. Equally, the Tribunal acknowledges that the arbitration clause survives the Government’s
allegations of illegality, but the continued validity of the arbitration clause simply affirms the
Tribunal’s jurisdiction to determine whether the Claimants made investments that qualified for
treaty protection.
