Omission has two elements. One must have the power to do something. And one must have a duty to do something. Then neglect occurs when nothing is done.
Duty is derived from oath or contract.
omission (n.)
mid-14c., omissioun, "a neglect or failure to do what one has power to do or ought to do," from Anglo-French omission
