457 - Senate establishes new inquiry into use of temporary working visas


Following the findings and recommendations of the Independent Review into the Integrity of the 457 visa programme, the Senate has established a new inquiry into the use of temporary work visas and reported abuse and exploitation of 'foreign' workers.


The inquiry will look at the broader range of temporary working visas and will investigate issues regarding the extent of exploitation and mistreatment of people on temporary work visas and the impact the programme has had on employment opportunities, skills and training development for Australians.
