A municipal by‑law prohibits any public gathering of more than \(50\) persons in Central Park between \(10\ \text{p.m.}\) and \(5\ \text{a.m.}\), citing the need to reduce noise and maintain public order. Under the constitution, a restriction on the right to peaceful assembly is permissible only if it (i) is prescribed by law, (ii) pursues a legitimate aim, and (iii) is necessary and proportionate. Does the by‑law satisfy these three conditions?

Answer Options

Correct Answer D. Yes, the by‑law satisfies all three conditions and is a permissible restriction.
