Subsection (2) applies where—
a person has a right to receive periodical payments, and
his right is protected by a scheme under section 213 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (compensation), but only as to part of the payments.
The protection provided by the scheme shall extend by virtue of this section to the whole of the payments.
Subsection (4) applies where—
one person ("the claimant") has a right to receive periodical payments from another person ("the defendant"),
a third person ("the insurer") is required by or in pursuance of an arrangement entered into with the defendant (whether or not together with other persons and whether before or after the creation of the claimant's right) to make payments in satisfaction of the claimant's right or for the purpose of enabling it to be satisfied, and
the claimant's right to receive the payments would be wholly or partly protected by a scheme under section 213 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 if it arose from an arrangement of the same kind as that mentioned in paragraph (b) but made between the claimant and the insurer.
For the purposes of the scheme under section 213 of that Act—
the claimant shall be treated as having a right to receive the payments from the insurer under an arrangement of the same kind as that mentioned in subsection (3)(b),
the protection under the scheme in respect of those payments shall extend by virtue of this section to the whole of the payments, and
no person other than the claimant shall be entitled to protection under the scheme in respect of the payments.
In this section "periodical payments" means periodical payments made pursuant to—
an order of a court in so far as it is made in reliance on section 2 above (including an order as varied), or
an agreement in so far as it settles a claim or action for damages in respect of personal injury (including an agreement as varied).
In subsection (5)(b) the reference to an agreement in so far as it settles a claim or action for damages in respect of personal injury includes a reference to an undertaking given by the Motor Insurers' Bureau (being the company of that name incorporated on 14th June 1946 under the Companies Act 1929), or an Article 75 insurer under the Bureau's Articles of Association, in relation to a claim or action in respect of personal injury.
