Where an award denies relief because of illegality the supervisory court must assess whether enforcing the award would now conflict with Hong Kong public policy as currently understood (Patel/Monat); errors by a tribunal in characterising public policy may justify suspension and remission under Article 34(4) rather than immediate setting aside; however contractual limits on remedies (clause 6.10(e)) are matters of construction and not jurisdictional if not timely pleaded, so that ground for setting aside was dismissed.
