Migration Amendment (Skills Assessing Authorities) Regulations 2024

The Migration Amendment (Skills Assessing Authorities) Regulations 2024 introduces pivotal changes to the Migration Regulations 1994, enhancing the oversight and integrity of skills assessment processes for migrants. These changes align with the Australian Government's broader migration strategy to ensure high standards and timely delivery of skills assessments by designated authorities.

Key highlights include:

  • The introduction of express powers for the Skills Assessment Minister to approve, impose conditions on, or revoke the approval of assessing authorities for skilled occupations. This ensures only suitable bodies handle skills assessments.
  • Mechanisms for internal reconsideration and merits review, promoting transparency and fairness in decisions related to assessing authorities.
  • Clarity on how these regulations apply to existing and future assessments, maintaining a robust framework for skilled migration.

These amendments are significant for skilled migrants and assessing authorities alike, solidifying Australia's commitment to maintaining a high-quality migration system.
