Schedule 8A, Part 5, paragraph 24

This paragraph applies if the relevant person in relation to a competition claim is under legal disability for a period at any time. In Scotland, the period during which the relevant person is under legal disability is not to be counted when calculating whether the prescriptive period for the claim has expired. References in this paragraph to a person being “under legal disability” have the same meaning as in the Prescription and Limitation (Scotland) Act 1973 (see section 15(1) of that Act). In this paragraph, “relevant person” means— in relation to a competition claim within paragraph 2(2)(a), a person who suffered the loss or damages that is the subject of the claim; in relation to a competition claim within paragraph 2(2)(b), the pursuer.
