Clause 28.9 in a Nutshell

Use at your own risk, campers!
28.9 CRTPA: Those who are not party to this Agreement may not use the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any of its terms. But other third-party rights, outside that Act, still apply.

Full text of Clause 28.9

28.9 A person who is not a party to this Agreement has no right under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any terms of this Agreement, but this does not affect any right or remedy of a third party which exists or is available apart from that Act.

Content and comparisons

ISLA’s crack drafting squad™’s undisguised enmity to this harmless clause is undimmed in the 8 years between the 2010 GMSLA and the 2018 Pledge GMSLA. The equivalent clauses (27.10 and 28.9 respectively) are the same.

Summary

Yet another instance of the irrational hatred the English have for this harmless and well intentioned statute from the dog days of the first Blair government. Almost bitter, isn’t it, how the 2010 GMSLA rules out any third party rights arising under this act but not any other third party rights that might somehow have magicked themselves into existence. Oh, no: they’re fine. It’s just your stupid CTRPA rights we’re not having.

Go figure, folks.
