• Issue – what is the main legal problem

between the parties?
• Law – what is the relevant law applicable to
the facts?
• Application – applying the law listed in your
law section to the facts of the question;
• Conclusion – an answer to your issue.

• Tutorial 2 – will provide students with detailed feedback

the ILAC method. This will be the first example of how to

the Course, in the lead-up to the 20% Assessable ILAC

with examples of high quality to poor quality ILAC
techniques in response to a question.
