MIA关于Visa Capping Bill的信息公布-2010年6月9日

VisaCapping Bill
The Migration Amendment (Visa Capping) Bill 2010was introduced to Parliament on 26 May 2010. The effect of the Bill wouldbe that the Minister could release a legislative instrument which:

Caps certain visa subclasses, based on certain classes     of applicant determined by factors such as age, English language ability     or occupation;
Any application meeting these criteria would be     considered never to have been made, with a return of the application fees;
If holding a bridging visa linked to the capped visa     application, the bridging visa would cease 28 days after the application     is capped;
If holding a temporary visa linked to the capped visa     application, the visa would cease 28 days after the application is capped;     and
It would not be possible for people meeting the     criteria to apply for the visa subclass for the rest of the financial     year.
TheBill is intended to address the large pipeline of General Skilled Migration(GSM) applications, which is now in the order of 147,000. The Bill is of greatconcern to the MIA for the following reasons:

It potentially applies to all visa subclasses, and     certain provisions in the Bill seem to contemplate application to partner     visas;
There are no limitations in the bill as to which     criteria can be specified; and
The Bill has a tendency to subvert the current process     of setting visa criteria (it effectively allows visa criteria to be     set by the Minister by legislative instrument, rather than having to have     regulations subject to Royal Assent and review by Parliament).
TheMIA has until the 18 June 2010 to make a submission to the Senate Legal andConstitutional Committee.
Ifyou have anything you’d like to put forward in the submission, please let us know.
Mark Webster
NSW/ACT President
