26 Expert appointed by arbitral tribunal (Model Law Art 26)
(1) Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the arbitral tribunal:
(a) may appoint one or more experts to report to it on specific
issues to be determined by the arbitral tribunal; and
(b) may require a party to give the expert any relevant information
or to produce, or to provide access to, any relevant
documents, goods or other property for the expert's
inspection.
(2) Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, if a party so requests or if
the arbitral tribunal considers it necessary, the expert must, after
delivery of the expert's written or oral report, participate in a hearing
where the parties have the opportunity to put questions to the
expert and present expert witnesses in order to testify on the points
at issue.
