Contracts are not enforceable by law, rather by the principles that are enforced by the courts. If a contract exists ( which is always a question posed by the court ), and there is a breach of contract, the courts will apply precedent and principles from the previous cases to determine the matter. There is to an extent a concept of common law meaning court made law that regulates this area, but there is no law as such that regulates the law of contract. No law of parliament is generally used in this kind of law.
