Required – a 5 minute presentation on a current item which is relevant to Company law. This is a chance to develop your research skills in a contemporary environment.

You are required to find an interesting issue in contemporary Company Law and research the topic. You are expected to spend at least 4 hours researching and preparing your PowerPoint.

This is an individual assignment. Assignments which are not the work of each student will result in a loss of marks.

You must be available to make your presentation in the week assigned.

The PowerPoint presentation must be lodged on Moodle no later than 5.00pm on Friday 16 August 2013. The mark awarded will be reduced by 10% for each day or part of a day the assignment is late.
