Identification of issues raised by the question

The essay fails to identify many of the main issues raised by this question. The question has also been misinterpreted; for example the meaning of an online intermediary” is quite

misunderstood. The issues therefore should be clearly identified, described and explained, with the essay demonstrating an understanding of the relevance of the issues to each other.

Knowledge and understanding of relevant principles

This essay reveals a superficial knowledge and understanding of the relevant legal principles. It is generally vague with the legal principles either not stated or dealt with accurately enough. In

particular, the essay fails to discuss in any depth or detail the many areas of reform contained in the Defamation Act 2013 only Section 1 of the Act has been considered. A much greater

knowledge and understanding of this subject area is required on submission.

Critical evaluation, reference to authorities and academic writing

The biography is limited and there are insufficient footnotes and referencing throughout the work. The essay should contain more extensive footnotes showing the references referred to on

each page. There is also a failure to explain and identify some of the sources used in the essay and to fully accredit authorities and quotations. The essay displays a lack of critical evaluation

and original thought.

Application to the facts, advice, arguments and conclusions

This essay suffers from poor expression. There are errors in grammar, punctuation and spelling throughout the essay and some of your sentences don’t make sense. All of these need to be

corrected on resubmission. Also, a lengthy section of the essay is repeated verbatim so please check your work. The essay would benefit from a balanced structure and a more detailed and

insightful conclusion.
