在上一财年,移民配额已经削减了3万,从19万减少至16万。Mr Morrison希望各州及领地政府将各自的人口计划书带到下一次十二月的国会议会上进行探讨。人口部长Alan Tudge说,政府将会询问各州及领地政府他们将需要多少人口来满足当地发展需求。他希望南澳州,塔斯马尼亚州及北领地会要求更多移民。Mr Tudge告诉记者说,“这不是一个标准值而可以应用于各个地方。我们希望可以帮助和支持那些需要人口的州或领地。但同时,我们也希望可以缓解墨尔本和悉尼的人口压力。”而内阁部长Christopher Pyne表示,“我们不需要对人口增长有所制止,我们的国土面积完全可以容纳2500万人口,而我们需要合理的控制人口增长。”工党领袖Bill Shorten相信,人口拥挤可以通过提供廉价住房来解决。这本身不是人口量的问题,而是如何规划人口增长的问题。移民并不会造成不好的人口规划,而是不好的规划会导致更加不完善的规划。 4. 移民局公布多个辅助型网站移民局官方网站已经全面更新,同时为了方便大家可以尽快解决申请签证过程中的各种问题,移民局公布了各网站的链接如下:1.
