Question 1. To what extent do you believe that people who lie on job applications should be fired without the usual requirement of reasonable notice? Does the situation change, in your view, if the applicant lied about something like a disability, for which the employer is not supposed to reject an applicant but might?

Question 2. Implied terms in law go beyond what contracting parties might be presumed to have intended, in order to fashion a particular type of contract with the possible outcome of putting the judge in the role of legislator. Are implied terms in law on the whole a good way of keeping up with social mores or do they leave too much discretion to judges and reduce the ability of parties to make contracts that reflect their desires?

Question 3. Defend or object to the proposition that employees and employers ought to be treated the same way when it comes to the requirement of reasonable notice and its assessment.

Question 4. Security of tenure (appointment for life) is a pre-condition of judicial independence. While judges are appointed for life, those who work for administrative tribunals are not. Some have argued that these should enjoy the same level of independence as do judges, while others claim that to do so would lead to stagnation and close the doors to good people. What do you think?

Question 5. Do you agree that it is appropriate to require that "special organizations," such as Christian Horizons, must demonstrate that a particular quality is a BFOR, on an objective basis? Or ought they to be allowed to determine for themselves subjectively what counts as the particular BFOR that meets the criteria for their particular organization?
