The DVA 2066's machinery (the syllabus's core): The complaint's routes: the local-level (the ward's-and-municipality's faces — the 2074-era localisation) + the police + the court (the direct filing's option); the any-person reporting (the public's duty face); The immediate protection: the protection order (the victim's-and-children's residence- and-safety — the offender's exclusion from the home: the residence's right's innovation); the interim orders (the emergency's faces); The compensation: the medical-and-mental-health costs (the treatment's entitlement); the damages for the harm (the court's assessment); the maintenance's interim faces; The service infrastructure: the service centres (the shelter-and-support); the reconciliation's careful design (the two-time limit — the mediation's restriction: the DV's non-ADR-suitability's debate — the reconciliation-pressure's critique); The punishment: the simple-to-aggravated ladder (the imprisonment-and-fine faces; the hurt-causing-and-death aggravations); The procedure's protections: the in-camera hearings (the privacy); the victim's identity's protection; the time-limits' careful design (the delayed-reporting's accommodation).
