Issues with our immigration system and program are splashed
across the media this morning, as Home Affairs Minister Clare
O'Neil says the government is already acting on allegations
regarding specific people over the
exploitation of the visa system.
"We are already taking action on these individuals,"
she told media this morning.
"But I do think there is a need to have a broader look at
the way in which the system has been exploited by criminals, and so
we will also undertake that work and we're just working with
the government about what's the best policy process to work
through."
We've got to have a really good conversation here, and the
migration reform is about looking at, you know, big economic
transformations the country needs to make. Because we want to be a
high-skill, high-wage economy and the immigration system can help
us deliver that.
