Authorities are hopeful today's planned demonstration outside Parliament won't be a repeat of last time.

Protestors are meeting in Wellington today for a self-styled "people's court" six months after their 23-day occupation came to a fiery end in February.

Wellington District Commander Superintendent Corrie Parnell told Mike Hosking they've talked with both the Freedom and Rights Coalition and the counter-protest group.

He says they intend to go about their business peacefully and lawfully, and both groups say they don't want friction between each other.
