(a) to (e) of Article I had to be fulfilled and in
Article II, it was prescribed that even if the
conditions laid down in Article I were fulfilled
recognition and enforcement of the award would
be refused if the court was satisfied in respect of
matters mentioned in clauses (a), (b) and (c). The
principles which apply to recognition and
enforcement of foreign awards are in substance,
similar to those adopted by the English courts at
common law. (See Dicey & Morris, The Conflict of
Laws, 11th Edn., Vol. I, p. 578.) It was, however,
felt that the Geneva Convention suffered from
certain defects which hampered the speedy
settlement of disputes through arbitration. The
New York Convention seeks to remedy the said
defects by providing for a much more simple and
effective method of obtaining recognition and
enforcement of foreign awards.
