Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Law Reform (Frustrated Contracts) Act 1943 does not entirely eliminate the need to consider the common law of unjust enrichment, as the Act only covers certain aspects of frustration and does not address all scenarios where recovery of benefits might be sought due to a frustrated contract. Common law principles can still apply where the Act does not provide a remedy.
