# The London Underground (East London Line Extension) (No. 2) Order 2001, Paragraph 16

Extent: E+W+S

(1) Subject to the following provisions of this Part of this Schedule, the Company shall be liable to make good or, if the undertaker so decides, to repay to the undertaker any expense reasonably incurred by the undertaker in making good all injury or damage to any sewers drains or works vested in the undertaker (except in so far as such sewer, drain or work is intended for alteration or removal for the purposes of the specified work) caused by or resulting from the construction of any specified work or any investigation undertaken in relation to any specified work and the provision of any new, altered or substituted sewer or any protective work under this Part of this Schedule and shall pay to the undertaker any additional expense to which it may be put in the maintenance, management or renewal of any new, altered or substituted sewer which may be necessary in consequence of the construction of any specified work.
(2) The Company shall indemnify the undertaker against all actions, claims, demands, costs, expenses, damages or loss which may be made on or against the undertaker which the undertaker may incur or have to pay or which it may sustain in consequence of the construction of a specified work or of the failure or want of repair of a specified work or any subsidence caused by the construction of any specified work or in consequence of any act or omission of the Company, their contractors, agents, workmen or servants, whilst engaged upon the specified work and any new, altered or substituted sewer or any protective work.
(3) The undertaker shall give to the Company reasonable notice of any such claim or demand as aforesaid and no settlement or compromise shall be made without the agreement in writing of the Company.
(4) Nothing in sub-paragraph (1) or (2) above shall impose any liability on the Company in respect of any damage to the extent that it is attributable to the act, neglect or default of the undertaker, its officers, servants, or, if not the Company, its contractors or agents.
(5) If in pursuance of the provisions of this Part of this Schedule—
(a) a sewer of better type, of greater capacity or of greater dimensions is placed in substitution of an existing sewer of worse type, of smaller capacity or of smaller dimensions; or
(b) a sewer (whether an existing sewer or a sewer substituted for an existing sewer) is placed at a depth greater than the depth at which the existing sewer was;
and the placing of a sewer of that type or capacity or of those dimensions or the placing of a sewer at that depth, as the case may be, is not agreed by the Company or, in default of agreement, is not determined by arbitration to be necessary, then, if it involves cost in the construction of works under this Part of this Schedule exceeding that which would have been involved if the sewer placed had been of the existing type, capacity or dimensions, or at the existing depth, as the case may be, the amount which apart from this paragraph would be payable to the undertaker by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) above shall be reduced by the amount of that excess.
(6) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (5) above an extension of a sewer to a length greater than the length of an existing sewer shall not be treated as a placing of a sewer of greater dimensions than those of the existing sewer.
(7) An amount which apart from this sub-paragraph would be payable to the undertaker in respect of works by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) above (and having regard, where relevant, to sub-paragraph (5) above) shall, if the works include the placing of a sewer provided in substitution for a sewer placed more than 7 years and 6 months earlier so as to confer on the undertaker any financial benefit by deferment of the time for renewal of the sewer in the ordinary course, be reduced by the amount which represents that benefit as calculated in accordance with the Code of Practice entitled “Measures Necessary where Apparatus is Affected by Major Works (Diversionary Works)” and dated June 1992 and approved by the Secretary of State on 30 June 1992.
(8) Sub-paragraph (1), (2) and (5) to (7) above shall not apply where the authorised works constitute major transport works for the purposes of Part III of the 1991 Act, but instead—
(a) the allowable costs of the construction of works under this Part of this Schedule shall be determined in accordance with section 85 of that Act (sharing the costs of necessary measures) and any regulations for the time being having effect under that section; and
(b) the allowable costs shall be borne by the Company and the undertaker in such proportions as may be prescribed by any such regulations.
