How is a mediator selected by parties in dispute?
Whether in the case of a voluntary mediation or one that is referred to the Centre by the Court or other adjudicatory authority or by law, a mediator is selected by the disputing parties from the list of mediators approved by the Centre, provided the person chosen is mutually acceptable to all the parties in dispute. If the parties do not agree on the choice of a mutually acceptable mediator, the Centre will appoint as mediator the person whose name is next on the list of approved mediators.
