Crowd gathers in Auckland to protest youth wage rates

KEY POINTS:

A large crowd has gathered in Auckland to protest against youth wage rates.

This is the last chance they will have before a watered-down bill to abolish youth pay rates goes before Parliament on Wednesday.

About 200 people gathered in Britomart Square.

Among them are Maori Party co-leader Pita Sharples and prominent unionists, along with the bill's key proponent Sue Bradford.

Ms Bradford says watering down her bill - by applying a 200-hour probationary period - is anti-family and discriminatory.

The march route goes from Britomart Square then south up Queen Street towards Aotea Square.
