The Methodist Church in Fiji says the planned public march is to support a submission to remove a phrase on sexual orientation from the Fiji Constitution and not to discriminate against homosexuals.
The General Secretary of the Methodist Church, the Reverend Tuikilakila Waqairatu, says the church wants the words 'sexual orientation' removed from the constitution because its meaning is too ambiguous.
The Human Rights Commission says the Methodist Church could face prosecution for encouraging discrimination if it goes ahead with the march.
The Reverend Waqairatu says the church plans to march but is seeking legal advice
"It will be a march and there will be an submission with the attempt to remove the sexual orientation, the bit which speaks of sexual orientation in the section 38 of our constitution."
The Reverend Waqairatu says the church plans to include former gays in the march who, he says, no longer practice gay activities because of a church rehabilitation programme.
