Applying the objective test in The Elissar, the arbitrator committed a serious breach of natural justice by deciding the merits when only asked to rule on a preliminary issue, and his continued denial of any basic error meant a reasonable party would lack confidence; accordingly the interim award was set aside and the arbitrator removed, remission being insufficient in the circumstances.
