15. CASE • Case is the whole arguments brought by the Government or Opposition team • Case has to touch the issue and spirit of the motion • Has boldstance • Opposition has own stance that in line with their rebuttals (negate the idea of Government). Rebuttals and arguments should be distinct.

16. ARGUMENTS • Good arguments are logical and relevant to the point being proven • Structure of argument: 1. Assertion– the statement which should be proved 2. Reasoning– the reason why that statement is logical 3. Evidence– examples/data that support the assertion and reasoning above 4. Link Back – the explanation of the relevance of this argument to the motion
