Burnt-out, underpaid midwives shout for better conditions

From Checkpoint, 5:55 pm on 12 August 2021

Burnt-out and underpaid midwives say mothers and babies could be hurt if conditions in the sector don't improve.

About 150 midwives and supporters marched to Parliament today, with midwives walking off the job in Wellington, Nelson and Marlborough as part of rolling strike action this week.

Our reporter Hamish Cardwell and cameraman Samuel Rillstone were there.
