To what extent are the rules governing causation and the subsequent case

law decided in this area is purely an issue of moral evaluation rather than
applying strict principles of law. Critically discuss the position of causation.

Issue:
1. Causation (explain purpose/function)
- To determine whether the defendant was the cause in fact (factual
causation) or the defendant was legally the cause of the outcome. (legal
causation)
2. Subject to rules of law? Principles that govern causation (case law)
3. Subject to judicial discretion of judges (moral evaluation//strict principles)
