The decision in this case has given a fresh life to discussion of the relationship between Nuisance and Negligence. The judgement leaves obscure the

I n the Wagon Mound (No: 2) , ‘foreseeability’ , 'negligence' and fault are jostled together without any clear analysis of the relationship between these concepts or their proper roles in
deciding actions in different torts. |
