Legal Implications

   The Law; You should only use as much force to stop the completion, continuance of the offence or attack. You must not continue to use force after they have stopped. Force must be legally justifiable in the circumstances. Must be reasonable and proportionate. Force means type, amount and duration. (Section 462A of the Crimes Act).
   Always act from a position of strength,
-Physically
-Lawfully
-Mentally
Legal justification;
-ones own defence
-defend another person under our care
