Immigration: Doing the right thing for the right reasons
Wilson, Peter | October 2017
Abstract
The new government has announced plans to reduce immigration. Being clear why the reduction will make New Zealand better off is important. The new government has the opportunity not just to make short-term changes, but to build an enduring policy regime based on evidence, analysis and clear principals. Migration policy is not easy, but the gains from getting it right are worth the effort. We offer some observations and suggestions based on our latest research.
