Fragomen in Australia, part of the world's largest sole
practice law firm focussing on immigration law and Australia's
single biggest immigration law firm and consultancy, is delighted
to support the Committee for Economic Development of Australia
(CEDA) in the publication of its research report looking at the
Effects of Temporary Migration in
Australia released 15 July, and the series of events across
Australia showcasing this report.
The importance of this research and its timing should not be
underestimated. Australia seems to be at a crossroads in terms of
public debate, and policy making as it relates to population and
migration. During the years of the Howard government, and the Labor
governments that succeeded them, the economic benefits that are
linked to population growth and immigration, were broadly accepted,
even though they were not regularly discussed.
