Question text
What principle was articulated by the court in Administrator, Natal v Edouard 1990 (3) SA

The court appeared to favour a total rejection of punitive damages in private and constitutional
matters.
2.
The court held that physical inconvenience caused by a breach of contract is actionable.

defamation. It aims to serve as compensation, vindicating the victim’s dignity, reputation and
integrity.
4.
The court held that a claim for compensation for pain and suffering cannot merely be based on
breach of contract and, furthermore, there is no common-law authority which generally allows
damages for any non-patrimonial loss caused by a breach of contract.
