Note – the above extension only operates if you are negligent in causing the loss or damage to the property in your care, custody or control. There can be situations where you have hired or borrowed other people’s property, & such property is lost or damage not as a result of your negligence. However, you may still be responsible for compensating the owner for their loss. In these circumstances, it would be prudent not to rely on the above extension on it’s own but also insure the hired or borrowed property under a General property insurance policy, which will operate regardless of fault or negligence.
