The Immigration Change Programme

Extracts from a speech by Immigration Minister Clayton Cosgrove
Wednesday 23 July 2008

This week has seen an important milestone with the reporting back of the Immigration Bill by the Transport and Industrial Relations Committee. Given that the Bill was reported back only on Monday, many of you may not have had the chance to review it in any detail yet, although I am sure you have been involved throughout the Act review process. So, I will take this opportunity to update you on a few of the key changes in what is the biggest rewrite of immigration law for two decades.

Why immigration is vitally important to New Zealand

First however, let us look to the big picture of immigration in the international context, the global risks associated with immigration, and how immigration contributes to New Zealand.
Immigration in the international context. We truly do live in a global world. Our exposure to the choices we have regarding where we live, work and play, has never been higher.

As part of this trend we are seeing increased global competition for workers. Demand for workers is increasing as ageing populations in developed countries retire. By 2050, one third of people in developed countries will be over 60 and the proportion of New Zealanders over 65 will double. With increasing international competition there are global shortages in a greater range of occupations.

To put this in context, in New Zealand, every year from 2000 to 2006 there was an average of 50,000 new jobs added to the total job stock. With new jobs continuing to grow, skill shortages are a concern and if left unchecked, this shortage can threaten economic growth. Immigration obviously plays a key role in helping employers meet skills shortages if there are not New Zealanders available to fill positions.

New NZ Immigration Rules announced

 Monday 10 March 2008 - 05:45:25 | Admin

The new rules spelt out for Immigration Advisers
7 March 2008

The professional standards and code of conduct that Immigration Advisers will have to meet in order to get and keep a licence have been released today, said the Immigration Minister Clayton Cosgrove.

Under a new law, anyone who provides advice about New Zealand immigration matters will have to be licensed (unless exempt). Today’s release of the code and industry competency standards means that Advisers now know exactly what will be expected of them prior to applying for a license from 4 May 2008.

Changes for foreign seasonal labour workers

 Monday 25 February 2008 - 19:03:14 | Admin

More flexibility for foreign seasonal labour workers
31 January 2008

Changes are to be made to seasonal work policies to enable workers on visitors' permits greater flexibility to move between employers and regions, the Immigration Minister Clayton Cosgrove said today.
More flexibility for foreign seasonal labour workers

Mr Cosgrove said the changes would fine-tune the Transitional Recognised Seasonal Employer Scheme (TRSE) scheme and the Variation of Conditions (VoC) for seasonal work that was agreed upon with industry in September 2007. As agreed with industry at that time, visitors working under the TRSE or the VoC scheme were tied to a particular employer, to prevent frustrations over workers leaving without notice to work for another grower and not remaining for the season.
