    Good Evening

    my query is more of an english comprehension question than a P3 question

    part b) says the following:

    “Assess the corporate governance and ethical dilemmas identified by SRO in its possible relocation to the foreign country and discuss the implications of these on organizational mission, purpose and strategy.”

    —————

    the question identifies 2 dilemmas. one is listed as a “commercial conflict of interest” and the other is listed as “company offices”

    when i read part b, i took it to mean that we needed to discuss only the dilemma which pertains to the relocation (company offices). so i ignored the commercial conflict of interest, since that will be there whether or not the relocation happens.

    but the answer discusses both of them.

    can u please shed some light

    regards

    I think you are right. There seems to be a conflict between the question information where you are told that two ethical problems have been identified and the (b) requirement which plainly states that it is interested in the relocation issues.

    I think I might have left out the conflict of interest material in my answer too.

    I can give little other consolation: in the real exam you have to interpret questions as best you can and get on with it. Questions are very rarely ambiguous.
