2831 Japan Paralympic Committtee (JPC) V
Tribunal Arbitral du Sport Court of Arbitration for Sport Arbitration CAS 2012/A/2831 Japan Paralympic Committtee (JPC) v. International Paralympic Committee (IPC) & International Blind Sport Federation (IBSA), award of 20 August 2012 Panel: The Hon. Michael Beloff QC (United Kingdom), Sole Arbitrator Paralympics football 5-a-side Reallocation of an unused slot Systems of selection criteria Validity of the IBSA’s decision to refuse to revise its reallocations decision for the London 2012 Paralympics Games 1. There is no uniform law which applies to selections for participation in sporting competitions in general or in the Olympics/Paralympics Games. Some are based on objective criteria, some on subjective criteria, some on a mixture of both criteria. The advantage of wholly objective system i.e one which depends upon ascertainable results or rankings is that it obviates controversy which attends upon the exercise of subjective judgment. The advantage of a subjective system i.e. one which does depend upon the judgment of the selectors is that it obviates the possibility that, notably in individual events, the best candidate may, through injury or illness or accident, may be unable to compete, or even if able to compete, be eliminated in sudden death trials. CAS has developed certain principles to govern selection disputes principally that: (i) selection criteria should be as objective as possible; and (ii) where selection criteria are objective they must be adhered to. 2. In case the international federation had a discretion and there was nothing irregular about the procedure by which its decision was taken, it must be considered that such decision was fair and reasonable.

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE GROWTH ENTERPRISE MARKET (“GEM”) OF THE STOCK EXCHANGE OF HONG KONG LIMITED (THE “STOCK EXCHANGE”) GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate companies to which a higher investment risk may be attached than other companies listed on the Stock Exchange.
