38 Interpleader
Where relief by way of interpleader is granted in any court and it
appears to that court that the claims in question are matters to
which an arbitration agreement (to which the claimants are parties)
applies, the court must, unless it is satisfied that there is sufficient
reason why the matters should not be referred to arbitration in
accordance with the agreement, make an order directing the issue
between the claimants to be determined in accordance with the
agreement.
