The Australian Business and Innovation and Investment programme

With applications for NSW nomination now being open under the Federal Government's Business and Innovation programme, lets take a closer look at this programme.

The purpose of the Australian Business and Innovation and Investment programme is to increase the entrepreneurial talent and diversify business expertise in Australia.

Lewis & Bollard have released their Migration Newsletter 710 which makes interesting reading:

The AAT Bulletin dated the 14 January 2019 shows recent Citizenship decisions on page 3, and Migration decisions on page 4.  

It is recommended that the Bulletin be read on-line. This has the advantage of allowing the reader to use hyperlinks to access the full text of cases and other internet sites mentioned in the Bulletin.

I have just read the statement put out by the Australian Chamber-Tourism and was quite frankly, appalled to learn that the Unions would be applying strong pressure on a possible Labor Government to wind back the Working Holiday Maker Scheme.

Firstly, the only reason the ACTU would make this stupid announcement, and apply strong pressure to a Labor government (and not apply pressure to the the current government), is because the ACTU have little to no power to influence the current government.

The ACTU is so desperate for a Labor government.   Labor leader, Bill Shorten is dirtily described by the current Prime Minister, Scott Morrison, as "union bred, union fed and union led" so there's little doubt that the ACTU's coffers will be wide open to Labor during the election campaign period.  Now with that in mind, let's have a look at the attack by the ACTU on Working Holiday Makers.
