Liability for damage or loss causedN.I.
42.—(1) An undertaker shall compensate—
(a)the street authority or any other relevant authority in respect of any damage or loss suffered by the authority in its capacity as such, and
(b)any other person having apparatus in the street in respect of any expense reasonably incurred in making good damage to that apparatus,
as a result of the execution by the undertaker of street works or any event of a kind mentioned in paragraph (2).
(2) The events referred to in paragraph (1) are any explosion, ignition, discharge or other event occurring to gas, electricity, water or any other thing required for the purposes of a supply or service afforded by an undertaker which—
(a)at the time of or immediately before the event in question was in apparatus of the undertaker in the street, or
(b)had been in such apparatus before that event and had escaped therefrom in circumstances which contributed to its occurrence.
(3) The liability of an undertaker under this Article arises—
(a)whether or not the damage or loss is attributable to negligence on his part or on the part of any person for whom he is responsible, and
(b)notwithstanding that he is acting in pursuance of a statutory duty.
(4) However, his liability under this Article does not extend to damage or loss which is attributable to misconduct or negligence on the part of—
(a)the person suffering the damage or loss, or any person for whom he is responsible, or
(b)a third party, that is, a person for whom neither the undertaker nor the person suffering the damage or loss is responsible.
(5) For the purposes of this Article the persons for whom a person is responsible are his contractors and any person in his employ or that of his contractors.
(6) Nothing in this Article shall be taken as exonerating an undertaker from any liability to which he would otherwise be subject.
