Article 7

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

This article applies to any payment falling to be made under a contract to which article 6 applies at any time after the contract is vested in the transferee authority.

(2)

Where the payment falls to be made by the transferee authority, the Council shall indemnify the authority in respect thereof; and where the authority receives any payment in connection with works the subject of a programme prepared under Schedule 1, it shall be paid to the Council.

(3)

A transferee authority which is liable to make a payment under paragraph (2) may deduct therefrom its proper legal costs and disbursements incurred thereon and not otherwise recovered by it.
