Explanation

"no- the contract can be affirmed by the injured party" is the correct answer. When there is a breach in a condition, one of two things can happen; the contract is terminated, or the contract is affirmed. The injured party has the choice of whether or not they want to continue working with the other party and this is called 'affirmirmation of the contract'. The contract doesn't HAVE to be terminated in the case of a major breach so options 1 and 2 are incorrect. Option 4 is also incorrect- the contract can continue even if the offending party says they'll commit further breaches - it's completely up to the injured party whether they want to continue working with them or not. See p. 46 for further details

As a sole-trader she doesn't have employees so doesn't need Employer's Liability Insurance. The book does not go into much detail about types of insurances - but this is a known exam topic. So if you aren't confident on these four types of insurance and when you'd expect a supplier to have them - do some extra research before the exam. Insurance types are briefly mentioned on p. 25
