VII.Conclusions and Recommendations
40. The Experts’ Group recommends to CGAP that:
a. a Working Group on matters related to Transnational Jurisdiction of Courts (WG) be established, following the conclusion of the work of the EG;
b. the WG be mandated to develop draft provisions of rules for concurrent proceedings, with a view to being in a better position to effectively assess the desirability and feasibility of a new binding instrument on matters related to jurisdiction in civil or commercial matters, and to further inform policy consideration and decisions in relation to the scope and type of the instrument;
c. the WG’s work proceed in an inclusive and holistic manner, with an initial focus on the rules for concurrent proceedings (parallel proceedings and related actions or claims), and acknowledging the primary role jurisdictional rules and forum non conveniens doctrine elements play in developing rules for addressing such proceedings;
d. the WG explore how mechanisms for judicial coordination and cooperation can support the operation of a future instrument on concurrent proceedings and transnational jurisdiction of courts; and
e. irrespective of CGAP’s decision on the establishment of a WG, or the continuation of the work of the EG, the PB be invited to convene two meetings before CGAP 2022, with intersessional work as required, so as to maintain momentum. If possible, one meeting will be held after the northern hemisphere summer 2021, and another in early 2022, with a preference, where possible, for hosting in-person meetings.
