50B Right to sue providers of motor cars to unlicensed traders
This section applies if—
a person provides an unlicensed person trading in motor cars with motor cars; and
before providing those cars, the person was given a notice under section 50A(4); and
another person suffers loss arising out of any act or omission by the unlicensed person in relation to those cars.
If the other person—
is refused payment of a claim made under section 76 in respect of the loss; and
is not a motor car trader—
she, he or it has a right of action against the person who provided the unlicensed person with the cars for damages in respect of the loss in so far as it involved those cars.
If the other person is paid any money out of the Fund in respect of the loss, the person who provided the unlicensed person with the cars is jointly and severally liable with the unlicensed person to reimburse the amount of that payment to the Fund.
