Within the period of time agreed by the parties or, failing such agreement, as determined by the arbitral tribunal, a claimant shall state —
the facts supporting his claim;
the points in issue; and
the relief or remedy sought,
and the respondent shall state his defence in respect of the particulars set out in this subsection, unless the parties have otherwise agreed to the required elements of such statements.
The parties may submit to the arbitral tribunal their statements, all documents they consider to be relevant or any other document that refer to such documents, or other evidence.
Except as otherwise agreed by the parties, any party may amend or supplement his claim or defence during the course of the arbitration proceedings unless the arbitral tribunal considers it inappropriate to make such amendment or supplement such claim or defence, having regard to the delay in making the amendment or the views of the parties.
