    The Globalization Bulletin Pakistan Economy January 2017 NEWS COVERAGE PERIOD FROM JANUARY 23RD TO JANUARY 29TH 2017 STAY CULTURE HITTING THE ECONOMY, SAYS CJ Dawn, January 29th, 2017 LAHORE: Lahore High Court Chief Justice Syed Mansoor Ali Shah said on Saturday that the culture of granting a “stay” in litigation should be discouraged as it was hitting the country’s economy hard. He was speaking at a function held at the Lahore Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI), where he inaugurated a “Mediation Centre” for out-of-court settlement of business disputes. He said nobody else could understand the value of time and money better than the business community, therefore, business disputes should be resolved instead of wasting time. He said new ways should be found out for dispute resolution to save time and money of the parties to litigation. He said concept of mediation was being promoted rapidly and the LCCI had taken an important initiative through establishing a platform for the purpose. Justice Shah invited the chamber to form a focal committee that should be integrated with the system of the LHC through information technology. He said that an Alternate Dispute Resolution Centre was being established in District Courts, in collaboration with the World Bank, that would be inaugurated soon. He said because the courts were already burdened with criminal cases, contractual issues should be resolved through mediation. LCCI President Abdul Basit said no country could achieve the goal of economic development without ensuring rule of law. He said the LCCI had established the Mediation Centre for out-of-court settlements of the business disputes.
