Minister for Regional Services, Decentralisation and Local Government, Mark Coulton has welcomed an announcement to expand Work and Holiday visa arrangements for young Thai nationals, saying it will help satisfy serious workforce demand in regional areas.

“By expanding this successful programme to more young people we are helping regional areas access the workforce they need to produce and grow their economies,” Minister Coulton said.

“This is another example of the Coalition Government delivering improved economic opportunities to regional Australia and ties in with our focus on decentralising government and the economy."
