The applicant and the other party to the contract, hereafter “the Parties”, retain the professional services of the Adjudicator who is to render a decision on the referred dispute.
2. APPLICABLE TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Any terms and conditions determined by Order of the Chair of the Conseil du trésor form an integral part of these terms and conditions.
3. ADJUDICATOR
The Adjudicator is to personally perform the mandate entrusted by the Parties and to act at all times in a neutral and impartial manner.

The Adjudicator must undertake to avoid any situation of conflict of interest likely to affect the performance of the mandate.

5. WITHDRAWAL BY THE ADJUDICATOR
An Adjudicator who is unable to continue the adjudication must so inform the Parties without delay so that they may choose another Adjudicator. Once that person has been chosen by the parties or, failing that, has been appointed by the Institut de médiation et d’arbitrage du Québec, the withdrawing Adjudicator is to send the entire file as soon as possible to the succeeding Adjudicator in the manner they agree upon.

The Adjudicator is remunerated at the hourly rate publi-shed in the Registry of Adjudicators maintained by the Institut de médiation et d’arbitrage du Québec.

The Adjudicator’s travelling time is remunerated at half the hourly rate referred to in the first paragraph if the distance travelled exceeds a 90-km radius from the Adjudicator’s home base.

An invoice for fees and expenses must be sent to the Parties by the Adjudicator. It must be sufficiently detailed to allow the Parties to verify, for each day, the validity of the fees or expenses claimed. Vouchers for any expenses claimed must be sent with the invoice.
Payment is made to the Adjudicator personally or to the order of the firm within which he or she works, in keeping with the written instructions given to the Parties by the Adjudicator.
