(b) the question is one which the arbitral tribunal was asked to determine;
(c) on the basis of the findings of fact in the award—
(i) the decision of the arbitral tribunal on the question is obviously wrong; or
(ii) the question is one of general public importance and the decision of the arbitral tribunal is at least open to serious doubt; and
(d) despite the agreement of the parties to resolve the matter by arbitration, it is just and proper in all the circumstances for the Court to determine the question.
