(2)Subsection (1) above shall not affect any action to which section 10 of this Act applies.

10Special time limit for claiming contribution

(1)Where under section 1 of the [1978 c. 47.] Civil Liability (Contribution) Act 1978 any person becomes entitled to a right to recover contribution in respect of any damage from any other person, no action to recover contribution by virtue of that right shall be brought after the expiration of two years from the date on which that right accrued.

(3)If the person in question is held liable in respect of that damage—

(a)by a judgment given in any civil proceedings ; or

(b)by an award made on any arbitration ;

the relevant date shall be the date on which the judgment is given, or the date of the award (as the case may be).

For the purposes of this subsection no account shall be taken of any judgment or award given or made on appeal in so far as it varies the amount of damages awarded against the person in question.
