15: A trader shall have no claim against the council for any loss, injury or damage sustained through fire, theft or other cause whatsoever nor shall he have a claim for compensation for loss of goodwill or otherwise on the termination of a licence or at any other time and all traders shall indemnify the council from and against all actions, proceedings, damage, loss, claims, losses or outgoings of whatever nature arising out of a traders use of any premises on the market.
16: It shall be the responsibility of the trader to insure his stock, fixtures, fittings and any other valuables brought into the stall or storage against damage by fire, theft or flood.
In other words, you're on your own boys. Point 15 is a belter.

Is this not applicable for the female market traders?
They should take a test case to court, if that's the contract they signed.
Not very politically correct is it?
I thought H.B.C. supported equality.
Or does that just mean everything we get comes in three languages?
Gender
a) to eliminate unlawful discrimination and harassment
b) to promote equality of opportunity between men and women
