Mediation Services - Greater Bay Area Mediation Platform
At the 2nd Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Bay Area Legal Departments Joint Conference in 2020, the working proposal of the Greater Bay Area Mediation Platform was endorsed by the legal departments of the three places. The Greater Bay Area Mediation Platform is an authoritative platform for high-level exchange and co-operation among the legal departments of the three governments, discharging the role of a standard-setting body with a view to promoting the wider use of mediation within the Greater Bay Area. The two mediation standards namely, the Greater Bay Area Mediator Accreditation Standards and the Greater Bay Area Mediator Code of Conduct Best Practice, as well as the Greater Bay Area Cross-boundary Disputes Mediation Model Rules were endorsed and came into effect on 30 December 2021 and 30 December 2022 respectively.
