“We are not only proposing a new path and plan, but we are announcing the first agenda of action in the upcoming federal budget, which we will present in the coming days.”
— Claire O’Neill, Australia’s Home Minister
Australia is facing a huge shortage of workers and it has made major changes in its immigration policy, reported morningexpress.in.
Australia’s Home Minister Claire O’Neill has announced major changes to Australia’s immigration policy.
Announcing major reforms to immigration policy, O’Neill said, “We are not only proposing a new path and plan, but we are announcing the first agenda of action in the upcoming federal budget, which we will present in the coming days.”
. Australia’s home minister, facing the problem of shortage of skilled workers, described Australia’s immigration system as full of flaws during a recent speech at the National Club.
“The current immigration policy is making our businesses fail,” he said.
“This is creating difficulties for people from other countries living here. Most importantly, this policy is not proving to be good for Australians either. So now, Australia will not test skills in its immigration policy, but rather the skills the country needs to get ahead.”
The biggest beneficiaries of this policy will be Indians who are already the second largest immigrant group in Australia.
