Australia’s Migration Occupations Demand List in Flux
April 26, 2007
Recency rule back into skilled assessed employment
Section 1.17 of the current Migration Regulations provides that the Immigration Minister may, by notice published in the Gazette, specify matters required by individual provisions of the Regulations to be specified for the purposes of those provisions.
Technically, the Migration Regulations defines the term ‘migration occupation in demand‘Â to mean a skilled occupation that is specified by Gazette Notice as a migration occupation in demand.
And the purpose of the prescribed list containing MOD entries is to specify skilled occupations as migration occupations in demand for the purposes of the definition of ‘migration occupation in demand’Â in regulation 1.03 of the Migration Regulations.
