LM-2025-000186 - [2025] EWHC 2098 (Comm)

Both TUI BEL and TUI NED (on the one hand) and SLX EST and SLX LAT (on the other) rely on the provisions in Clauses 20.7 and 20.8 of the CTA as the basis for claiming an indemnity against each other in respect of the reasonable costs they have incurred, and will incur, in pursuing and defending their respective claims. They have however both agreed that the practical way in which this should be dealt with is through the Court making in due course such orders for costs as it considers appropriate, and for those costs then being assessed, if not agreed. The parties are also agreed that the basis of any such assessment should be the indemnity (as opposed to standard) basis.
