The correct answer is that people must ensure the gathering is peaceful and does not involve violence or breaking the law.
The correct answer highlights that while Australians are free to gather and express their views, this right is conditional on the assembly being peaceful and law-abiding. This reflects the Australian value of the rule of law and mutual respect.
