The basis for regulating arbitration is that State courts and other public authorities are authorized to participate and interfere in as well as contribute to arbitration only in so far as they have an express authorization to do so based on provisions of statutory law. On the other hand, the social significance of arbitration and the legal effects, res judicata and enforceability, of arbitral awards require that arbitration is regulated by law and simultaneously to certain extent submitted to the control of State courts and other public authorities. This article discusses the intervention of state courts in Finnish arbitration.
