Further, the Reciprocal Enforcement of Commonwealth Judgments Act (RECJA) was repealed by Act No 24 of 2019 with effect from a date to be determined by the Government. Readers are thus advised to read the Singapore report together with the Asian Principles for the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Judgments to learn about the latest provisions on REFJA, and are reminded that references to RECJA in the Singapore report are no longer valid.
