The paper looks at the concept of duty under the tort of Negligence addressing the problem of the distinction between 'duty situations' and 'no duty situations' from the perspective of the tort of Negligence. The principles behind the attempts of the English Common law to draw a line between the two situations are examined highlighting the difficulties posed by novel situations, social dynamism and the influence of human rights principles.
