Business Skills Program
A discussion paper for review of Business Skills has been issued – 33 responses currently being reviewed.
No policy position within DIAC has been formulated yet.
The MIA’s submission was discussed. The MIA requested that DIAC provide more statistical information to
allow for more informed submissions to be made.
The feeling at DIAC is that a 2-stage process is preferable to granting PR then
monitoring.
Business training: DIAC acknowledges that there is a weakness in skills of case
officers. Accountants have been hired at Adelaide and Perth to address these weaknesses.
ENS/RSMS
PAM for ENS is due to be rewritten, even after 2 April changes.
ENS Review is at the gathering evidence stage.
Discussion paper will be issued.
Looking at “aligning” 457 and ENS – removing red tape for the transition, including
looking at English, sponsorship approval .
RSMS: DIAC is of the opinion that this delivers for regional business.
Skilled Occupations List
Skills Australia reviewed the SOL in October 2010.
Refer to Skills Australia website for which occupations might be removed as they have an occupation by occupation analysis.
New list should be announced in May 2011, to take effect from 1/7/11.If an applicant has lodged and occupation is removed
from SOL then they will still be eligible, but will lose priority processing. DIAC is looking at changing regs to facilitate this.
There are now fewer applications being lodged than available places in the program, and DIAC anticipates
processing priority level 4 in the coming year.
457
457 Occupations List was recently changed – these were as a result of the ASCO -> ANZSCO shift.
Occupations removed had dropped in terms of skill level.
Occupations added had increased in skill level.
WTO considerations require that most occupations at skill level 1-3 be included, and
also keen not to disadvantage employers.
DIAC analysed activity in the occupations removed – all had less than 10 applications lodged.
A new 457 booklet has been released – seeking to make it clearer for employers
Significant increase in demand this year.
Priority processing for flood reconstruction – so far only 9 approvals. There have
been delays due to sponsors needing to get documentation together.
No update on new training benchmarks being introduced.
No update on e-lodgement for overseas sponsors or centralised processing. |
