IndemnityE+W

165.—(1) Subject to sub-paragraphs (2) and (3) the undertaker must in relation to the construction of the HE works indemnify Highways England from and against all costs, expenses, damages, losses and liabilities arising from any claim, demand, action or proceedings resulting from damage caused by the construction of the HE works.

(2) Sub-paragraph (1) does not apply if the costs, expenses, damages, losses and liabilities were caused by or arise out of the act, neglect or default of Highways England or its officers, servants, agents, contractors or any person or body for whom it is responsible.

(3) In no circumstances is the undertaker liable to Highways England under this Part of this Schedule for any indirect or consequential loss or loss of profits.

(4) If any person makes a claim or notifies an intention to make a claim against Highways England which may reasonably be considered likely to give rise to a liability under this paragraph then Highways England must—

(a)as soon as reasonably practicable give the undertaker reasonable notice of any such third party claim or demand, specifying the nature of the indemnity liability in reasonable detail;

(b)not make any admission of liability, agreement or compromise in relation to the indemnity liability without first consulting the undertaker and considering their representations.

(5) The undertaker acknowledges that Highways England may receive statutory compensation claims and that Highways England may not be able to comply with sub-paragraph (4) above in respect of such claims.

(6) Where Highways England considers that sub-paragraph (5) applies to any claim or demand it must give notice of that view as part of the relevant notice provided pursuant to sub-paragraph (4)(a) above.

(7) Highways England must use its reasonable endeavours to mitigate in whole or in part and to minimise any costs, expenses, loss, demands and penalties to which the indemnity under this paragraph applies where it is within Highways England's reasonable gift and control to do so and which expressly excludes any obligation to mitigate liability arising from third parties which is outside of Highways England's control. If reasonably requested to do so by the undertaker, Highways England must provide an explanation of how any claim has been mitigated or minimised or where mitigation or minimisation is not possible an explanation as to why.
