36. Considering that article 283 oI the Convention applies 'when a dispute arises and
that there is no controversy between the parties that a dispute exists;
37. Considering that article 283 oI the Convention only requires an expeditious ex-
change oI views regarding the settlement oI the dispute 'by negotiation or other
peaceIul means;
38. Considering that the obligation to 'proceed expeditiously to an exchange oI views
applies equally to both parties to the dispute;
39. Considering that Malaysia states that, on several occasions prior to the institution
oI proceedings under Annex VII to the Convention by Malaysia on 4 July 2003, it
had in diplomatic notes inIormed Singapore oI its concerns about Singapore`s land
reclamation in the Straits oI Johor and had requested that a meeting oI senior oI-
fcials oI the two countries be held on an urgent basis to discuss these concerns with
a view to amicably resolving the dispute;
40. Considering that Malaysia maintains that Singapore had categorically rejected its
claims and had stated that a meeting oI senior oIfcials as requested by Malaysia
would only be useIul iI the Government oI Malaysia could provide new Iacts or
arguments to prove its contentions;
41. Considering that Singapore maintains that it had consistently inIormed Malaysia
that it was prepared to negotiate as soon as Malaysia`s concerns had been specifed
and that Malaysia had undertaken to supply reports and studies detailing its specifc
concerns but did not do so prior to 4 July 2003;
42. Considering that Singapore states that, aIter receiving the Notifcation and State-
ment oI Claim submitted by Malaysia on 4 July 2003 instituting arbitral proceed-
ings in accordance with Annex VII to the Convention, Malaysia and Singapore
agreed to meet in Singapore on 13 and 14 August 2003 to discuss the issues with a
view to resolving them amicably;
43. Considering that Singapore maintains that Malaysia abruptly broke oII the negotia-
tion process oI 13 and 14 August 2003 by insisting on the immediate suspension oI
the reclamation works as a precondition Ior Iurther talks;
44. Considering that Malaysia stated that a Iurther exchange oI views could not be
expected while the reclamation works were continuing;
45. Considering that Malaysia stated Iurther that a party is not obliged to continue with
an exchange oI views when it concludes that the possibilities oI reaching agreement
have been exhausted;
46. Considering that in Iact the parties were not able to settle the dispute or agree on a
means to settle it;
47. Considering that the Tribunal has held that 'a State Party is not obliged to pursue
procedures under Part XV, section 1, oI the Convention when it concludes that the
possibilities oI settlement have been exhausted (Southern Bluehn Tuna Cases, Or-
der oI 27 August 1999, paragraph 60), and that 'a State Party is not obliged to con-
tinue with an exchange oI views when it concludes that the possibilities oI reaching
603 Article 283 of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea
agreement have been exhausted ' (The MOX Plant Case, Order oI 3 December
2001, paragraph 60);
48. Considering that, in the view oI the Tribunal, in the circumstances oI the present
case Malaysia was not obliged to continue with an exchange oI views when it con-
cluded that this exchange could not yield a positive result;
49. Considering that the discussions held between the parties on 13 and 14 August
2003 were conducted, by agreement oI the two parties, without prejudice to Malay-
sia`s right to proceed with the arbitration pursuant to Annex VII to the Convention
or to request the Tribunal to prescribe provisional measures in connection with the
dispute;
50. Considering that these discussions were held aIter Malaysia had instituted proceed-
ings beIore the Annex VII arbitral tribunal on 4 July 2003 and, accordingly, the
decision oI Malaysia to discontinue the discussions does not have a bearing on the
applicability oI article 283 oI the Convention;
51. Considering that, in the view oI the Tribunal, the requirement oI article 283 is satis-
fed;
Four comments on these recitals may not be out oI place. It is not entirely clear Irom
the recitals whether the parties had ever exchanged views about the specifc matter
oI the means oI settlement, as distinct Irom the dispute itselI. Paragraph 48, in stat-
ing the Tribunal`s conclusion, contrasts with the unilateral conclusions in the two
earlier cases recalled in paragraph 47. As Judge Chandrasekhara Rao put it in his
separate opinion, 'the obligation (in article 283) must be discharged in good Iaith,
and it is the duty oI the Tribunal to examine whether this is being done.
28
The Ior-
mula in paragraph 51 is a judicial fnding that complements the conclusion reached
in paragraph 48. Secondly, in paragraph 34, Singapore`s argument that article 283
makes negotiation a precondition seems to go too Iar: it is an exchange oI views that
is a precondition. Next, the Tribunal was clearly correct in pointing out in paragraph
38 that article 283 imposes an obligation on both parties to a dispute. However, the
article does not specify what happens if the respondent does not express any views
at all: aIter a reasonable time, the frst state should be Iree to proceed. Finally, Ma-
laysia`s argument recorded in paragraph 44 that an exchange oI views could not be
held while the disputed activity was continuing cannot be correct since the whole
purpose oI the exchange is to open the way towards fnding some means Ior settling
the on-going dispute.
The Annex VII tribunal was able to give an Award on Agreed Terms, Iollowing the
entry into Iorce oI the settlement agreement between the parties: accordingly, no
question oI article 283 arose at this stage.

604 Chapter 36
4 Barbados v. Trinidad
In the arbitration under Annex VII oI the LOS Convention between Barbados and
Trinidad, the parties again submitted lengthy arguments about article 283 and their
contacts. Trinidad`s Counter Memorial argued, with reIerence to article 283, that
'there was no exchange oI views oI any kind between the termination oI the proc-
esses under articles 74(1) and 83(1) and the notifcation instituting proceedings un-
der Annex VII, which 'came without warning.
29
Trinidad invoked both paragraphs
oI article 283, the second in the context oI a transIer oI the dispute Irom negotiations
to litigation. Barbados, in its Reply, argued that the lengthy negotiations had satisfed
article 283`s requirements; it characterized Trinidad`s argument as 'excessively Ior-
malistic and one that would Irustrate the object and purpose oI Part XV in that the
respondent state could make a declaration under article 298(1)(a)(i) with immediate
effect.
The arbitration tribunal made extensive fndings about article 283 which merit a
Iull citation, as Iollows:
201. Recourse to Part XV brings into play the obligation under Article 283(1) to 'pro-
ceed expeditiously to an exchange oI views regarding its settlement by negotiation
or other peaceIul means. The Tribunal must preIace its consideration oI Article
283 with the observation that that Article does not readily ft the circumstances
to which Articles 74 and 83 give rise, nor does it sit easily alongside the realities
oI what is involved in 'negotiations which habitually cover not only the specifc
matter under negotiation but also consequential associated matters. The Tribunal
notes that Article 283 is oI general application to all provisions oI UNCLOS and
is designed Ior the situation where 'a dispute arises, that is where the frst step in
the dispute settlement process is the bare Iact oI a dispute having arisen. Articles
74 and 83 involve a diIIerent process, in that they impose an obligation to agree
upon delimitation, which necessarily involves negotiations between the Parties, and
then takes the Parties to Part XV when those negotiations have Iailed to result in
an agreement. In this situation Part XV and thus Article 283 is thus not the
frst step in the process, but one which Iollows the Parties` having already spent a
'reasonable period oI time (in the present case several years) seeking to negotiate
a solution to their delimitation problems.
202. The Tribunal consequently concludes that Article 283(1) cannot reasonably be in-
terpreted to require that, when several years oI negotiations have already Iailed to
resolve a dispute, the Parties should embark upon Iurther and separate exchanges
oI views regarding its settlement by negotiation. The requirement oI Article 283(1)
Ior settlement by negotiation is, in relation to Articles 74 and 83, subsumed within
the negotiations which those Articles require to have already taken place.
203. Similarly, Article 283(1) cannot reasonably be interpreted to require that once ne-
gotiations have Iailed to result in an agreement, the Parties must then meet sepa-
rately to hold 'an exchange oI views about the settlement oI the dispute by 'other
29 Paragraph 117, available on www.pca-cpa.org.
605 Article 283 of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea
peaceIul means. The required exchange oI views is also inherent in the (Iailed) ne-
gotiations. Moreover, Article 283 applies more appropriately to procedures which
require a joint discussion oI the mechanics Ior instituting them (such as setting up
a process oI mediation or conciliation) than to a situation in which Part XV itselI
gives a party to a dispute a unilateral right to invoke the procedure Ior arbitration
prescribed in Annex VII.
204. That unilateral right would be negated iI the States concerned had frst to discuss
the possibility oI having recourse to that procedure, especially since in the case oI
a delimitation dispute the other State involved could make a declaration oI the kind
envisaged in Article 298(1)(a)(i) so as to opt out oI the arbitration process. State
practice in relation to Annex VII acknowledges that the risk oI arbitration proceed-
ings being instituted unilaterally against a State is an inherent part oI the UNCLOS
dispute settlement regime (just as a sudden submission oI a declaration accepting
the compulsory jurisdiction oI the International Court oI Justice is a risk Ior other
States having already spent a 'reasonable period oI time (in the present case sev-
eral years) seeking to negotiate a solution to their delimitation problems.
205. The Tribunal reaches the same conclusion in respect oI the possibility that the re-
quirement to negotiate a settlement under Articles 74(1) and 83(1) could be regarded
as a 'procedure Ior settlement which had been 'terminated without a settlement
so as to bring paragraph 2 oI Article 283 into play, and by that route require the
Parties to 'proceed expeditiously to an exchange oI views aIter the unsuccessIul
termination oI their delimitation negotiations. To require such a Iurther exchange oI
views (the purpose oI which is not specifed in Article 283(2)) is unrealistic.
206. In practice the only relevant obligation upon the Parties under Section 1 oI Part XV
is to seek to settle their dispute by recourse to negotiations, an obligation which in
the case oI delimitation disputes overlaps with the obligation to reach agreement
upon delimitation imposed by Articles 74 and 83. Upon the Iailure oI the Parties to
settle their dispute by recourse to Section 1, i.e. to settle it by negotiations, Article
287 entitles one oI the Parties unilaterally to reIer the dispute to arbitration.
Once again, a Iew comments on some oI the interpretations and assessments set out
in these paragraphs may be appropriate. As regards paragraph 201, maritime bound-
ary negotiations vary considerably in scope and character: there are Iew 'habitual
or 'consequential associated matters. To my mind, article 283 is perIectly capable
oI ftting the circumstances oI boundary negotiations. For example, aIter the parties
have explored Iully the possibilities oI reaching agreement in accordance with arti-
cles 74 and 83 without success, they could turn (perhaps at a separate 'stock-taking
meeting) to an exchange oI views on the question oI fnding a settlement by Iurther
negotiations, or mediation or conciliation (as in the case oI Iceland and Norway over
Jan Mayen)
30
or other agreed means such as invoking the good oIfces oI the UN
Secretary General. Alternatively, they could Iollow the practice oI Australia and New
Zealand and address Notes Verbales to the other party to the dispute indicating with
30 Charney and Alexander (eds.), International Maritime Boundaries (1993), vol. II, Report
No. 9-4.
606 Chapter 36
reIerence to article 283 which method oI settlement was considered to be the most
appropriate in the prevailing circumstances. One party might wish to end negotiations
and proceed at once to arbitration or litigation: the other party could be oI a similar
mind, in which case they could exchange views about the scope oI the question(s) to
be posed, the best Iorum, the timing and other procedural arrangements. Equally, the
other party might disagree, in which case it could make a new oIIer in the negotia-
tions or call Ior conciliation or Ior a pause Ior internal refection. Recourse to litiga-
tion in inter-governmental relations can have wider implications, both in domestic
politics and bilateral relations. Seen in this light, article 283 could represent a useIul
saIety valve and could ft the circumstances oI a change Irom negotiation to litigation
rather well.
In paragraph 203, the arbitral tribunal argues that article 283(1) 'cannot reasonably
be interpreted to require that once negotiations have already Iailed to result in agree-
ment, the Parties must then meet separately to hold 'an exchange oI views about the
settlement oI the dispute 'by other peaceIul means. The tribunal considered that the
'required exchange oI views is also inherent in the (Iailed) negotiations. But is this
persuasive? In my experience, while some negotiations have extended to discussing
the possibility oI litigation iI agreement were to prove unattainable, most sets oI
boundary talks have been confned to the boundary issues and have not extended to
the question oI submitting the dispute to a court or tribunal, even in instances where
the parties were Iar apart. Boundary negotiations oIten last several years and involve
each side making small steps towards meeting the other somewhere around the mid-
dle oI the area under negotiation. II one party loses patience aIter a Iew months oI
talks and wishes to litigate whilst the other wishes to continue with the process oI
making small steps, article 283 still serves the useIul purpose oI protecting the latter
Irom being taken completely by surprise. The tribunal`s argument that article 283
'applies more appropriately to procedures which require a joint discussion oI the me-
chanics. than to a situation in which Part XV gives a party to a dispute a unilateral
right to invoke the procedure Ior arbitration is all very well, but this argument still
does not mean that article 283 has no application whatsoever in the latter situation.
Nor should the requirement oI an exchange oI views be dismissed as 'unrealistic,
as asserted in paragraph 205 in regard to article 283(2). The whole article may be
unusual, but it Iorms part oI the Convention and it was part oI the price oI securing
consensus on Part XV as a whole. Its requirement may be wholly appropriate on diI-
Ierent Iacts or in diIIerent circumstances.
In paragraph 204, the tribunal argues that this 'unilateral right would be negated iI
the States concerned had frst to discuss the possibility oI having recourse to that pro-
cedure, especially since.the other state could make the declaration oI the kind en-
visaged in article 298 (1)(a)(i). However, the right is not absolute: the Convention
conditions this particular unilateral right, frst in article 283 by requiring an exchange
oI views on means oI settlement and secondly in article 298 by allowing the opt-out
declaration. In order to avoid provoking the latter, the negotiating State intending
to go to arbitration may have to draIt its statement oI view with care, even fnesse;
article 283 requires nothing less. The allusion in paragraph 204 to the jurisdiction oI
the ICJ prompts the thought that many Governments that have accepted the Court`s
607 Article 283 of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea
jurisdiction under the optional clause have added a reservation to guard against being
taken by surprise by an opportunistic acceptance oI the jurisdiction by another State
with which there is a dispute. Surprise is oIten a bad thing in diplomatic relations.
In paragraph 206, the tribunal states that 'In practice the only relevant obligation
upon the Parties under Section 1 oI Part XV is to seek to settle their dispute by re-
course to negotiations. and also that 'Upon the Iailure oI the Parties to settle their
dispute by recourse to Section 1, i.e. to settle it by negotiations, Article 287 entitles
one oI the Parties unilaterally to reIer the dispute to arbitration. These statements
do less than justice to the actual terms oI section 1 as a whole and article 283 in par-
ticular.
Without commenting on the merits oI the tribunal`s decision on this point in the
context oI the relations between the parties, the actual reasoning advanced in the
paragraphs 210 to 206 is not persuasive.
IV Conclusions
When a dispute arises, in practice what usually happens is that the two Governments
remain in diplomatic relations: accordingly, through Embassies and Ioreign minis-
tries, they exchange diplomatic messages, setting out their respective positions; iI
there is no progress, they hold talks about the dispute. The respective Ambassadors
and Foreign Ministries will be in regular contact. This applies to all types oI disputes,
including ones that involve the interpretation or application oI the Convention. The
Governments will characterize the dispute as a fsheries dispute or an environmental/
pollution dispute or a boundary dispute, according to the substance; the interpretation
oI the Convention will be at best a secondary Iactor. Foreign Ministries are Iamiliar
with handling incipient disputes; they are unlikely to look in a Convention Ior guid-
ance on the procedures to be Iollowed. Contrary to what article 283 (1) seems to
require, Governments do not usually begin by holding talks about how to handle the
dispute: instead, they Iocus on the substance oI the outstanding issues, looking to
clariIy positions, to reduce the scope oI diIIerences and to limit possible damage to
bilateral relations. In other words, article 283 is an unusual prescription.
At the same time, it may have a certain useIulness in some instances: the exchange
may cause one party or the other (or both) to re-examine its position on the substance
oI the dispute or the means oI settling it. When a maritime dispute frst arises, it is
not always apparent that a provision oI the LOS Convention is relevant, especially
where other treaties in Iorce between the parties have a bearing on the issues or
where the issue is on the agenda oI an international organization to which the dispu-
tants belong. Some time may be spent on establishing the Iacts through diplomatic
exchanges beIore the relevant provisions oI the LOS Convention can be identifed.
Even then, the legal aspect may be minor in relation to some very obvious economic
or political aspects. The strands oI negotiation, consultation, dispute-handling and
exchanging views about the means oI settlement may oIten become entangled. The
simple sequence oI events anticipated in article 283(1) may oIten not correspond
to the convoluted Iacts oI an actual dispute. Even so, exchanging views may bring
greater clarity to the overall situation Iacing the parties.
608 Chapter 36
Article 283 was intended to protect respondent States Irom being taken by sur-
prise. Thus, a state which has agreed to negotiate or which has entered into negotia-
tions over a maritime issue should not change Irom negotiation to litigation without
frst Iulflling its obligations towards its negotiating partner. The LOS Convention has
created new jurisdictional possibilities, including compulsory procedures leading to
binding decisions. However, there are some qualifcations, including the duty to ex-
change views on the available means oI peaceIul settlement prior to having recourse
to one oI them unilaterally. In actual litigation, the applicant`s Iailure to comply with
article 283 could be invoked as a preliminary objection concerning jurisdiction and
admissibility. It may be more eIIective iI invoked by the respondent and decided by
the court or tribunal as a preliminary objection separately Irom the merits, as in Cam-
eroon v. Nigeria beIore the International Court oI Justice.
The inclusion oI the reIerence to 'negotiation in article 283 may have been in-
tended to give negotiations a certain pre-eminence as a means of settlement. How-
ever, read in the context oI Section 1, article 283 appears to be confned to the choice
oI means oI settlement by the parties. It should not be taken to mean that negotiation
is a precondition to be Iulflled beIore recourse to compulsory procedures is permissi-
ble. In the words oI President Amerasinghe, article 283 is a general obligation which
does not limit the Ireedom oI choice oI the parties. In that perspective, an exchange
oI views appears to be something diIIerent Irom an obligation to negotiate. It is a
much lesser thing, even when understood in the sense oI consulting. Indeed, Article
283 may be satisfed by relatively little eIIort on the part oI the complaining state. It
may be suIfcient to draw attention to some Iacts, to invoke specifed provisions in the
LOS Convention, to point to the existence oI a defned legal dispute under the Con-
vention, and to express a preIerence Irom among the various means oI settlement.
The respondent state would then procrastinate at its peril.
The practice to date oI applying article 283 appears to show that there is oIten
conIusion between an obligation to negotiate and one to exchange views. This conIu-
sion has arisen Irom the Iacts oI particular disputes and their handling by the parties.
The clearest practice in applying article 283 has been that by Australia and New
Zealand, who separated the strands oI negotiations about questions oI substance Irom
exchanges oI views about means oI settlement.
Both the International Tribunal Ior the Law oI the Sea and arbitral tribunals have
shown a reluctance to fnd that article 283 has not been complied with. (In the case
oI the Tribunal when acting under article 290, the standard is simply that oI a prima
facie case on jurisdiction. Compliance with article 283 goes to admissibility more
than jurisdiction, but the prima facie standard is applicable there also.) The require-
ment imposed by article 283 is not to enter into a lengthy discussion or to make
genuine attempts to reach a compromise over the means oI settlement. The obligation
is simply to exchange views or to consult, and to do so expeditiously. So long as the
applicant can produce some evidence oI relevant exchanges, article 283 is unlikely
to act as a bar to proceedings. However, it Iorms part oI the Convention and should
be applied by all concerned, whether political leaders, diplomatists or judges, as indi-
cated by Judge Chandrasekhara Rao in the Land Reclamation case.
