as liability for personal injuries sustained by the child immediately after its birth.
(4)No damages shall be recoverable under either of those sections in respect of any loss of expectation of life, nor shall any such loss be taken into account in the compensation payable in respect of a child under the [1965 c. 57.] Nuclear Installations Act 1965 as extended by section 3, unless (in either case) the child lives for at least 48 hours.
(5)This Act applies in respect of births after (but not before) its passing, and in respect of any such birth it replaces any law in force before its passing, whereby a person could be liable to a child in respect of disabilities with which it might be born; but in section 1(3) of this Act the expression " liable in tort" does not include any reference to liability by virtue of this Act, or to liability by virtue of any such law.
