Later, they will march on the headquarters of federal ministers, 4 Treasury Place, at noon.

It recommends tough new anti-corruption measures, including a watchdog to crack downon intimidation and criminal behaviour on building sites and new laws to regulate theindustry.

It also calls for pattern bargaining - the practice of the bulk negotiation of enterpriseagreements in an industry - to be outlawed.
