Article 21

United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

Except in cases of force majeure, if for reasons attributable not to the beneficiary but to the supplier the goods have not been supplied within 30 days of the delivery deadline specified, the supplier shall bear all the financial consequences of total or partial failure to supply the goods. Such financial consequences may include in particular costs incurred by the beneficiary as a direct result of the failure to implement the supply, such as demurrage, dead freight for shipping or overland transport, rental of warehouse or storage areas and related insurance costs.

In the circumstances referred to in the first paragraph, the Commission shall in addition record the failure to implement the supply and shall take appropriate measures.
