Revista da EMERJ - V. 20 - N. 2 - Maio/Agosto - 2018

 R. EMERJ, Rio de Janeiro, v. 20, n. 2, p. 73 - 115, Maio/Agosto 2018 98 have offices in other cities in the country, according to the Statute of the Chamber. With its decisions, the law precludes the oppor- tunity for the mediators to be organized in other associations than the Chamber. Also, this solution raises up the question about the appropriate allocation of sufficient resources at the local level, nee- ded for the functioning of KMRM, and in ultima linea for unfettered access to justice through this way of disputes resolving. The Cham- ber is entrusted with the following public authorities: maintaining the Register of mediators; certifying the facts for which the Chamber keeps records; and determining the amount of the membership fee for members of the Chamber. Actually, the only fact for which Chamber keeps records is the content of the Register of Mediators. The maintaining of the Register for records of the mediation which ended with an agreement signed before the initiation of court pro- ceedings is obligation for the Ministry of Justice. The maintaining of the Register of trainers and the Register of accredited training programs for mediators is entrusted to the Board. Also, it should be noted that the Law on Mediation of 2013 contains unconstitutional, discriminatory provision, because it provides that as a member of the Ethics Council can be elected only persons older than 35 years of age at a time when the election takes place. It is unclear why the legislator accepted this solution. The Ministry of Justice supervises the work of the Chamber. Unsolved question is what is going to happened with those mediators who are certified according to the previous Law and don`t have license. China Sophia
