Quizz: Performance and breach of contract

Question 13

 

 

 

Which one of the following statements does the case of Associated Newspapers Ltd v Bancks (1951) 83 CLR 322 provide authority for?

(a)  Terms in a contract are ‘conditions’ if, in the opinion of the court, the losses caused by the breach are immediate losses rather than consequential losses.

(b)  Terms in a contract are ‘conditions’ if the court is of the opinion that the breach deprives the non-defaulting party of the substantial performance.

(c)   Terms in a contract are ‘conditions’ if the court can infer from the circumstances that the non-defaulting party would obviously not have entered the contract without that term.
