Immigration Cuts & More in NZ News

Posted on: Mon 19 Jun 2017

Just months after the Turnbull Government scrapped the 457 Visas program, New Zealand’s Labour Party have announced their own immigration cuts.

Targeting low-skilled workers and students, this plan will see immigration cut by 20,000-30,000 a year.

Kiwi Correspondent Pearl Little from 95bFM spoke with our host Jennie Lenman about what has motivated this policy and more.
