Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. Will the minister stand by her comments yesterday that companies which do misuse visas will probably ‘lose their right to further sponsor workers’? Can the minister confirm that the Murray Bridge company has been told by DIMA simply to improve the situation? Does this mean that the company will only now be required to train these workers and pay them correctly? Isn’t this yet a further corruption of the integrity of the skilled migration program?
