...ETHICAL REASONING ASSIGNMENT By :Lina Cassis 500389711 LAW 122-011 491 Word The issue that is raised in Martha’s situation is the fact that she made a statement about Bob in public that could ultimately ruin his reputation.

Defamation can either be slander or liable, although it was slander when Martha communicated a wrongful accusation “that Bob is not a man of his Word” to a third party(TBREA) that caused them(assuming they are reasonable people) to have a lower opinion of Bob, which can cause his business to suffer. The ethical aspect of this issue is the fact that Martha being a reasonable person should have known that it is ethically wrong to talk about somebody in a hurtful way especially among his peers. Martha will be liable for defamation. She slandered Bob’s reputation and as a result his clients will doubt his word and his reputation and business as a result will suffer. The statement “Bob just doesn’t keep promises” is indeed defamatory statement because a reasonable person would have thought that it referred to the plaintiff (McInnis,Kerr,Vanduzer; 2014).Member of the (TBREA) knew that Martha was referring to Bob because she made no effort to even hide his name, although if she has just said “he just doesn’t keep his promises” members might not know who she is referring to and consequently would not be a defamatory statement. Martha does not have any defences to the tort...

...“When we invest wisely in children and families, the next generation will pay that back through a lifetime of productivity and responsible citizenship. When we fail to provide children with what they need to build a strong foundation for healthy and productive lives, we put our future prosperity and security at risk.” (Centre on the Developing Child, Harvard University, 2010) Over the last decade there have been many changes in settings and children’s services in Ireland. Central to these changes there has been a major emphasis put on the impotance of early years care and education and improving the affordability and acessability of childcare and enhancing quality in early years settings in Ireland. In the past the whole area of childcare was neglected and research repeatly found inequalities of provision for children in early years settings. Which in turn lead to government stating that there needed to be more highly quailifed staff in early years settings, to raise the standard of care for young children, thus the ECCE sector related degree courses were created.
