All arguments must be supported using a variety of high-quality primary evidence. Avoid using any one source repetitively.    Age of ReferencesMost references for this task should be published within the last 5 years, however, the appropriate use of older evidence sources (e.g. seminal theoretical ethical work) is acceptable.  List Heading  “References” is centered, bold, on a new page (14 point Calibri or Arial).  Alphabetical Order  References are arranged alphabetically by author family name  Hanging Indent  Second and subsequent lines of a reference have a hanging indent  DOI or URL  Presented as functional hyperlink  Spacing  Double spacing the entire reference list, both within and between entries  ADMINISTRATION                          Late Penalties  Late penalties will be applied from 09:01am on the 6th September, 2021, incurring 5% penalty of the maximum marks available up to a maximum of 15% in total.
