18.6.1 the compensation payable by one party to the other party in respect of that loss will be reduced accordingly;
18.6.2 the reduction will take into account the extent of the responsibility of that other person for the loss; and
18.6.3 in determining the extent of the responsibility of that other person for the loss, no account will be taken of (a) any limit or exclusion placed on the amount that person will pay or (b) any shortfall in recovery from that person (for whatever reason).
