Abstract
This paper argues that contrary to contemporary practice, it should be possible to prevent an arbitrator being appointed to a tribunal because he/she has expressed opinions on general principles of law that will have a central role in the arbitration, even where no judgement has been made regarding the application of those laws to the case at hand.
