- Jari's Law is about ensuring Tasmania Police protect male victims of domestic violence, and believe their accusations against female perpetrators.[4]
- Jari's Law is about ensuring that men, and men with children, are provided equal access to support services and funding as women, and women with children are.[5]
- Jari's Law is about ensuring female offenders receive the same sentencing as male offenders.[6]
- Jari's Law is about providing men with Legal Aid funded representation and support.[7]
