Where a party participated in an arbitration when it had knowledge of or could with reasonable diligence have discovered grounds for objection, a challenge to an award for serious irregularity under the Arbitration Act 1996 s.68 was barred by s.73 of the Act, no extension of time should be granted for the making of the s.68 application and the application itself was an abuse of process.
