Abstract
Abstract In order to succeed in a negligence action, the claimant must establish that he or she was owed a ‘duty of care’ by the defendant. The following chapter examines the tests the courts apply to determine whether a duty is owed. It also considers the impact of jurisprudence of the European Court on Human Rights on imposition of a duty, and the particular difficulties imposing a duty in cases of pure economic losses, psychiatric harm and omissions.
