accordance with Art. 20 of TCO, will be contrary to the principle that special
provisions shall apply before common ones.
5 Conclusion
Whether it is a bill of lading (incorporating either an arbitration clause or referring to
charterparties containing an arbitration clause) which has detailed regulation on its
validity under the relevant legislation and subject to sensitive examination, both
general and specific as in the TCC, or where the terms or references are determined
as applicable as a result of such examination, it is necessary to adopt the arbitration
clause that is in validity and to establish the decisions in accordance with this
determination without applying any other examination.
The arbitration clause subject to specific examination, as stated above, will
also be subject to the generalized transaction terms examination, which will result
in the destruction of the principle of trust and of the universal systems accepted
by domestic laws and international conventions. In my view, application of the
examination of generalized transaction terms will be improper for maritime transport
contracts, charterparties and bills of lading issued accordingly, where the arbitration
clause is incorporated.
