Supporting strong and sustainable regions - Review of regional migration 


The Australian Government’s Migration Strategy outlined a new vision for Australia’s migration system. This included a policy roadmap containing 8 key actions, and over 25 new policy commitments and areas for future reform.

As part of the Migration Strategy, the Department of Home Affairs committed to evaluate regional migration settings and the Working Holiday Maker program to ensure migration supports development objectives in regional Australia and does not contribute to the exploitation of migrant workers.

The migration system plays a key role in supporting regional Australia to prosper through the injection of culture, skills, innovation and economic benefits that migration brings.
