I feel like the key element is the knowledge of falsity, but I’m not certain if that’s what they’re asking for here.

I’m really unsure about option D. I thought any false statement could count, but does it have to be in court specifically?

I practiced a similar question where the focus was on whether the statement was made knowingly. I feel like that might be important here too.

I think I remember that for a penury offense, the false statement has to be material, but I'm not sure if it has to be made under oath.

The key here seems to be identifying the element that is not required for a perjury offense. I'll review the options and try to eliminate the ones that are required.

Okay, let's see. I know perjury involves making a false statement under oath, so I'm guessing the key is figuring out which of these is not required.

Ensuring divisional governance fosters continuous improvement processes seems like it could help sustain strong IT governance over time. I'll consider that angle.

I'm leaning towards D as well. The question is asking what is NOT an element of perjury, and making a false statement in a court of law seems to fit that criteria.

D sounds like the correct answer to me. Perjury is specifically about lying in a court of law, not just any false statement.

I'm pretty sure the answer is B. Making a false statement while under oath is a key element of perjury, not making a false statement in general.
