The government has granted a two-week extension for responses to its consultation on proposals to implement the Singapore Convention on Mediation due to the level of interest received

The deadline, previously 15 October, is now 29 October 2025.

The Convention, which the UK signed in May 2023 but has not yet ratified, provides a framework for the recognition and enforcement of international commercial settlement agreements resulting from mediation. It has been ratified to date by 18 countries while a further 40 countries are signatories but have not yet ratified the Convention.
