AUSTRALIAN VALUES This is an Australian values question — In the real test, every values question must be correct.
You are new to Australia and worry that you may be treated unfairly here. What do Australia's laws offer you?
- Protection, because all Australians are protected by our laws ✓
- Protection only once you have become an Australian citizen
- Protection only if you belong to a registered organisation
- Protection only in the state or territory where you live
Why this is the answer
The legal system exists to protect people, not only to punish them. That protection covers all Australians.
This question is from: Commitment to the Rule of Law
