Answer-In the case of Harvey v. Facey it was held that_______________

It was observed by the Privy Council that there never existed an agreement between the parties to the case and it also stated that for a contract to be a valid one, a proposal and the acceptance of the proposal are needed so as to make the contract binding on the parties. Mere reply of a query is not an acceptance. Apart from this, the acceptance of the proposal must be notified to the individual who is making the proposal because a legally enforceable agreement requires certainty to hold from both the parties to the contract.
