In certain cases, whether by adjudication of the court or agreement with the third party/co-defendant, a specified percentage contribution in relation to a particular claim may be paid by a third party/co-defendant to the SCA. These amounts represent costs recovered by the SCA on behalf of the Delegated State Authorities, which are subsequently reimbursed to the relevant Authorities.
