Updated by IPOS

The Revised Enhanced Mediation Promotion Scheme (REMPS) is a funding scheme by the Intellectual Property Office of Singapore (IPOS) to cover part of parties' mediation costs.
The funding covers
(i) fees charged by the mediation service provider;
(ii) mediator's fees; and
(iii) up to 80% of mediation-related lawyer / agent fees (and mediation-related disbursements charged by the party's lawyer / agent).

The Revised Enhanced Mediation Promotion Scheme (REMPS) encourages parties in IPOS proceedings to choose mediation by funding the process, so that more can experience mediation as an attractive alternative to a hearing at IPOS, to resolve their disputes amicably.

With an increase in uptake of mediation, and some publicity with the parties' consent, we hope to see a mindset change in businesses and individuals, in the way disputes are resolved in future.
