The Stonestreet Green Solar Order 2025
- (5) Other than as expressly set out in this Part of this Schedule, the Company shall have no liability to the undertaker arising out of or in consequence of any works to which this Part of this Schedule applies save where the Company or its contractors have been negligent. This applies whatever the manner in which liability might otherwise have arisen (whether for breach of contract, in tort, for breach of statutory duty or otherwise) and whether such liability would otherwise have arisen in respect of losses, damages, costs, liabilities, injuries, actions, claims, proceedings or matters suffered or incurred by or brought against the undertaker (including, without limitation, in respect of any works carried out pursuant to paragraphs 100(6), 100(8) or 104(2) of this Part of this Schedule) of the Company or otherwise.
- (6) Where has liability to the undertaker under this Schedule shall use best endeavours to pursue its appointed consultant(s) and contractor(s) in respect of the remedying defects in the relevant works in accordance with the terms of their appointments. To the extent that recovers any monies from such consultant(s) or contractor(s) the Company shall pay or apply such monies as can, in its reasonable opinion, be apportioned works—
- (a) first in meeting its own costs, liabilities and losses (current, anticipated or otherwise) (if any); and
- (b) any balance then being paid to the undertaker.
105
The undertaker must repay to the Company all fees, costs, charges and expenses properly and reasonably incurred by the Company—
- (a) in constructing any part of a specified work on behalf of the undertaker as provided by paragraph 100 or in constructing any protective works including, in respect of any permanent protective works, a capitalised sum representing the cost of maintaining and renewing those works;
- (b) in respect of the reasonable approval by the engineer of plans submitted by the undertaker and the supervision by the engineer of the construction of a specified work or a protective work;
- (c) in respect of the employment or procurement of the services of any inspectors, signallers, watchkeepers and other persons whom it is reasonably necessary to appoint for inspecting, signalling, watching and lighting HS1 property and for preventing, so far as may be reasonably practicable, interference, obstruction, danger or accident arising from the construction or failure of a specified work or a protective work;
- (d) in respect of any special traffic working resulting from any speed restrictions which may in the reasonable opinion of the engineer, require to be imposed by reason or in consequence of the construction or failure of a specified work or a protective work or from the substitution or diversion of services which may be reasonably necessary for the same reason; and
- (e) in respect of any additional temporary lighting of HS1 property in the vicinity of the specified works, being lighting made reasonably necessary by reason or in consequence of the construction or failure of a specified work or a protective work,
provided that the undertaker is not liable for any injury, loss, damage, costs nor is the undertaker required to repay any sums under paragraphs (a) to (e) which arise from, or in connection with, the Company in carrying out any specified works or protective works negligently.
106
- (1) In this paragraph—
- “EMI” means, subject to sub-paragraph (2), electromagnetic interference with the Company’s apparatus generated by the operation of the authorised development where such interference is of a level which adversely affects the safe operation of the Company’s apparatus;
- “Company’s apparatus” means any lines, circuits, wires, apparatus or equipment (whether or not modified or installed as part of the authorised development) which are owned or used by the Company for the purpose of transmitting or receiving electrical energy or of radio, telegraphic, telephonic, electric, electronic or other like means of signalling or other communications.
- (2) This paragraph applies to EMI only to the extent that such EMI is not attributable to any change to the Company’s apparatus carried out after approval of plans under paragraph 100(2) for the relevant part of the authorised development giving rise to EMI (unless the undertaker has been given notice in writing before the approval of those plans of the intention to make such change).
- (3) Subject to sub-paragraph (5), the undertaker must in the design and construction of the authorised development take all measures necessary to prevent EMI and must establish with the Company (both parties acting reasonably) appropriate arrangements to verify their effectiveness.
- (4) In order to facilitate the undertaker’s compliance with sub-paragraph (3)—
- (a) the undertaker must consult with the Company as early as reasonably practicable to identify all of the Company’s apparatus which may be at risk of EMI, and must continue to consult with the Company (both before and after formal submission of plans under paragraph 100(2)) in order to identify all potential causes of EMI and the measures required to eliminate them;
- (b) the Company must make available to the undertaker all information in the possession of the Company reasonably requested by the undertaker in respect of the Company’s apparatus identified under paragraph (a); and
- (c) the Company must allow the undertaker reasonable facilities for the inspection of the Company’s apparatus identified under paragraph (a).
- (5) In any case where it is established that EMI can only reasonably be prevented by modifications to the Company’s apparatus, the Company must not withhold or delay its consent unreasonably to modifications of the Company’s apparatus, but the means of prevention and the method of their execution must be selected at the reasonable discretion of the Company, and in relation to such modifications paragraph 100(2) has effect subject to this paragraph.
- (6) If at any time prior to the completion of the authorised development and regardless of any measures adopted under sub-paragraph (3), the testing or commissioning of the authorised development causes EMI then the undertaker must immediately upon receipt of notification by the Company of such EMI either in writing or communicated orally (such oral communication to be confirmed in writing as soon as reasonably practicable after it has been issued) forthwith cease to use (or procure the cessation of use of) the undertaker’s apparatus causing such EMI until all measures necessary have been taken to remedy such EMI by way of modification to the source of such EMI or (in the circumstances, and subject to the consent, specified in sub-paragraph (5)) to the Company’s apparatus.
- (7) In the event of EMI having occurred—
- (a) the undertaker must afford reasonable facilities to the Company for access to the undertaker’s apparatus in the investigation of such EMI;
- (b) the Company must afford reasonable facilities to the undertaker for access to the Company’s apparatus in the investigation of such EMI; and
- (c) the Company must make available to the undertaker any additional material information in its possession reasonably requested by the undertaker in respect of the Company’s apparatus or such EMI.
- (8) Where the Company approves modifications to the Company’s apparatus under sub-paragraphs (5) or (6)—
- (a) the Company must allow the undertaker reasonable facilities for the inspection of the relevant part of the Company’s apparatus; and
- (b) any modifications to the Company’s apparatus approved under those paragraphs must be carried out and completed by the undertaker in accordance with paragraph 101.
- (9) If any changes in the operation of High Speed 1 cause EMI (whether or not measures have been adopted pursuant to sub-paragraph (3)) then the undertaker shall as quickly as reasonably practicable after notification by the Company of EMI take all measures necessary to remedy the same by way of modification to the source of such EMI or (as the case may be) further protective works or modification to the specified works or the Company’s apparatus (subject to the Company’s approval under sub-paragraph (5)).
- (10) To the extent that it would not otherwise do so, and unless otherwise expressly stated, the indemnity in paragraph 110(1) applies to the costs and expenses reasonably incurred or losses suffered by the Company through the implementation of the provisions of this paragraph (including costs incurred in connection with the consideration of proposals, approval of plans, supervision and inspection of works and facilitating access to the Company’s apparatus) or in consequence of any EMI to which sub-paragraph (7) applies.
- (11) For the purpose of paragraph 104(1) any modifications to the Company’s apparatus under this paragraph are deemed to be protective works referred to in that paragraph.
- (12) In relation to any dispute arising under this paragraph the reference in article 44 (arbitration) to a single arbitrator to be agreed between the parties is to be read as a reference to an arbitrator being a member of the Institution of Engineering and Technology to be agreed.
107

- (4) Within seven days of receiving the last submission, the arbitrator must notify the parties whether a hearing is to be held and the length of that hearing.
- (5) Within ten days of the arbitrator advising the parties that he/she is to hold a hearing, the date and venue for the hearing must be fixed by agreement with the parties, save that if there is no agreement the arbitrator must direct a date and venue which he/she considers is fair and reasonable in all the circumstances. The date for the hearing must not be less than 35 days from the date of the arbitrator’s direction confirming the date and venue of the hearing.
- (6) A decision will be made by the arbitrator on whether there is any need for expert evidence to be submitted orally at the hearing. If oral expert evidence is required by the arbitrator, then any expert(s) attending the hearing may be asked questions by the arbitrator.
- (7) There will be no process of examination and cross-examination of experts, but the arbitrator will invite the parties to ask questions of the experts by way of clarification of any answers given by the expert(s) in response to the arbitrator’s questions.

- (9) The arbitrator may make other directions or rulings as considered appropriate in order to ensure that the parties comply with the timetable and procedures to achieve an award on the substantive difference within four months of the date on which the arbitrator is appointed, unless both parties otherwise agree to an extension to the date for the award.
- (10) If a party fails to comply with the timetable, procedure or any other direction then the arbitrator may continue in the absence of a party or submission or document, and may make a decision on the submitted information attaching the appropriate weight to any evidence submitted beyond any timetable or in breach of any procedure or direction.
- (11) The arbitrator’s award must include reasons. The parties will accept that the extent to which reasons are given must be proportionate to the issues in dispute and the time available to the arbitrator to deliver the award.
