I'm not aware of the visa arrangements of all other countries around the world. What I do know—and I've said this many times now, so, in the interest of time, this will be the last time that I make this point—is that, in Australia, there has always been an expectation under our laws that temporary visa holders will be able to support themselves while in Australia. Those who are unable to support themselves over the next six months, either through work, savings or access to superannuation, are strongly encourage to return home. The time to do so is now.
