Parts (A) and (B) above comprise the whole question.
This assessment carries 20% of the total marks for the module.
1. You are required to respond to the above question by preparing an essay which is 1,000 words in length (+ / – 10%).
2. Although marks are not awarded separately for each of the two parts, your overall mark for this essay will be seriously reduced if you fail to answer each part effectively.
3. Please use one side only of each sheet of paper.
4. Please remember to number the pages.
5. Please use double line spacing for the body of the essay and single line spacing for footnotes and bibliography.
6. The essay must be researched, written-up, and typed by you; presented in Times New Roman, font size 12; with 2.0 spacing; and with standard margins (2.54cms top and bottom, and 2.54cms left and right).
7. Please remember to use footnotes, and to include a bibliography at the end of your essay.
8. You must use double inverted commas (“—”) to indicate extracts from published sources (including books, articles, statutes, case reports, and internet sources). An ‘extract’ means that you are taking the exact words from the published source.
9. You must not use double inverted commas to indicate paraphrases of text found in published sources (books and other sources as indicated above). A ‘paraphrase’ is the taking of an author’s ideas but not the exact words of the author.
