What it covers
This unit enables students, through the study of cases, statutes and other materials, to acquire a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of, and competence in, analysing a range of non-contractual civil wrongs. Its principal focus is on the law of negligence, including the duty it imposes, breach of that duty, kinds of loss, defences and remedies. The unit also introduces students to loss distribution mechanisms and to statutory compensation schemes in operation in Australia.
