I think (i) is misleading, obligations can also be voluntary!

I remember that in tort law, liability often hinges on fault, so (iii) seems right. But I’m not confident about (ii) either; it feels like there might be exceptions.

I’m leaning towards (i) being incorrect because it seems like a contract can also have obligations imposed by law, right? But I could be mixing things up.

I feel like I’ve seen a question similar to this before. I think (iii) is definitely correct since negligence requires fault, but I’m not sure about the others.

I think statement (ii) might be tricky. I remember something about damages being tied to actual loss, but I'm not completely sure if that's always the case.

Writing scripts and code for tax updates seems like the most complex and time-consuming approach. I'd try to find a more out-of-the-box solution if possible.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know the SDA is involved in the Incident Management process, but I can't quite remember all their specific responsibilities. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I'm going to go with option C and hope the judge doesn't hold it against me for being a little too 'negligent' in my answer choice.

Ah, I see what they're getting at. A contract is a voluntary agreement, while tort obligations are imposed by the state. Gotta love those legal distinctions!
