Clause 8

No action against a carrier’s servant or agent which arises out of damage to which the Convention or the amended Convention relates shall, if he was acting within the scope of his employment, be brought after more than two years, reckoned from the date of arrival at the destination or from the date on which the aircraft ought to have arrived, or from the date on which the carriage stopped.

Article 29 in the First and Second Schedules shall not be read as applying to any proceedings for contribution between persons liable for any damage to which the Convention or the amended Convention relates.

Subject to sections 4 and 29 of the Limitation Act (Cap. 163), no action shall be brought by a person, liable for any damage to which the Convention or the amended Convention relates, to recover contribution from any other person in respect of such damage after the expiration of two years from the time when a court gives judgment or makes an award against the person seeking to recover the contribution.

Subsections (1), (2) and (3) and Article 29 in the First and Second Schedules shall have effect as if references in those provisions to an action included references to an arbitration; and section 30(3) and (4) of the Limitation Act (which determine the time at which an arbitration is deemed to be commenced), shall apply for the purposes of this subsection.
