Taskforces

Immigration Taskforce
The Immigration Taskforce is a trusted advisor to the Federal and Regional Governments with respect to economic migration. The Taskforce provides feedback on policy decisions, based on its practical experience and knowledge of migration legislation and how this affects international businesses. The Taskforce makes sure that the voices and business needs of international companies are heard at national and regional levels and develops position papers on a range of immigration issues. The Taskforce meets regularly with governments and administrations to share knowledge and affect policy change, particularly with the aim of reducing red tape and the administrative burden of complying with immigration regulations.
