Ahmed finds his usual parking place on an empty piece of land has been blocked off. Instead, he goes for the first time to a car parking building. A notice just inside the entrance to the carpark states:

'The company will not be responsible for death, personal injury, damage to vehicles, or theft from them, due to any act or default of its employees or any other cause whatsoever.'

Ahmed receives a ticket when he enters the carpark which refers him to the contents of this notice.

When Ahmed returns to collect his car, he finds it has been stolen. He goes to report this to the carpark attendant and is injured when the attendant negligently allows the barrier to fall on Ahmed's head.

Question 4 In 2006 the Australian Government established an inquiry into corporate social responsibilities with the aim of deciding whether the Corporations Act should be amended so as to specifically include particular social and environmental responsibilities within the Act. At the completion of the inquiry it was decided that no specific regulations would be added to the legislation, and that instead, 'market forces' would be relied upon to encourage companies to do the 'right thing' (that is, the view was expressed that if companies did not look after the environment, or did not act in a socially responsible manner, then people would not want to consume the organisations' products, and people would not want to invest in the organisation, work for them, and so forth. Because companies were aware of such market forces they would do the 'right thing' even in the absence of legislation). You are required to explain the decision of the government that no specific regulation be introduced from the perspective of: 1. Public Interest Theory 2. Capture Theory 3. Economic Interest Group Theory of regulation.Question 4 (1 point) Oral contracts are: O always enforceable O void for fraud sometimes enforceable O always unenforceable Save Question 5 (1 point) Unless the contract specifies otherwise, each of the following contract duties can be delegated except: O A store's duty to deliver a computer to the buyer's house O A surgeon's duty to perform a back operation O A landscape company's duty to clear snow from a parking lot O A repair shop's duty to repair a computer Save 13 3/24/11 8:51 AM Pete agrees to sell two used snowmobiles to Aaron.
