If a report by the Council is unanimously agreed to by the Members
thereof, other than the Representatives of any of the parties to the
dispute, the Members of the League agree to comply with the
recommendations of the report.
[Sidenote: 5 of Article 4 of the Protocol, with verbal changes. Eighth
paragraph of Article 15 of the Covenant.]
In no case may a solution, in accordance with a unanimous
recommendation of the Council accepted by one of the parties concerned,
be again called in question.
If the dispute between the parties is claimed by one of them, and is
found by the Council to arise out of a matter which by international
law is solely within the domestic jurisdiction of that party, the
Council shall so report and shall make no recommendation as to its
settlement.
[Sidenote: Seventh paragraph of Article 15 of the Covenant, as modified
by 4 of Article 4 of the Protocol.]
If the Council fails to reach a report which is unanimously agreed to
by the Members thereof, other than the Representatives of any of the
parties to the dispute, it shall submit the dispute to arbitration.
The Council shall itself determine the composition, the powers and the
procedure of the Committee of Arbitrators and, in the choice of the
arbitrators, shall bear in mind the guarantees of competence and
impartiality referred to above.
[Sidenote: 6 of Article 4 of the Protocol, omitting clauses now
unnecessary.]
The Members of the League undertake that they will carry out in full
good faith any judicial sentence or arbitral award that may be rendered
and that they will comply, as provided in paragraph ten hereof, with
the solutions recommended by the Council. In the event of a Member of
the League failing to carry out the above undertakings, the Council
shall exert all its influence to secure compliance therewith. If the
Council fails therein, it shall propose what steps should be taken to
give effect thereto.
[Sidenote: Paragraphs nine and ten of Article 15 of the Covenant, and
Article 6 of the Protocol.]
The Council may in any case under this Article refer the dispute to the
Assembly. The dispute shall be so referred at the request of either
party to the dispute, provided that such request be made within
fourteen days after the submission of the dispute to the Council.
