so many problems associated with the Lib visa rules that we can see just how dodgy the Libs were at managing this important department.
It's not easy. One perennial problem of getting migrants to stay in rural and regional areas as they seem to want to gravitate to the cities.
Additionally the previous Government had a plan to more or less privatise visa management. Spending large amounts of time and money on the project before abandoning it. I wondered if a huge backlog of visa applications was a selling point to attract high bids to take on the task.
Was reading that a number of countries facing ageing populations will most likely be competing with each other for skilled and un-skilled migrants as time goes by. Goodness knows where new arrivals are going to live. Australia probably needs to work out a way for States to ramp up social housing again like they did in the old'n days.
