Australia to cut back on immigration
Australia doesn’t want Brits anymore!
Major employment recruiters in Australia are warning that migration cuts could damage future projects in Australia and lead to a huge skills shortage.
Both political parties have pledged to get tough on immigration and reduce migrant numbers which are blamed for the growing population of Australia. Tony Abbott has promised to cap immigration at 170,000 people whereas Labour say that changing immigration policy is already leading to a reduction of immigrants entering Australia.
Now the recruitment sector are having their say on the controversial issue of immigration. Jane Bianchini, chief executive of Professional Recruitment, warns that tightening migration rules are making it difficult to recruit skilled migrant labour to fill labour shortages
