When an insurer is sued by a claimant under the Third Parties (Rights Against Insurers) Act 2010, can that insurer bring a contribution claim against another person whom, the insurer claims, is also liable to the claimant for the same loss as was caused by the insurer’s insured?

Joshua Munro appeared for the applicant and Nicholas Pilsbury for the respondent.
