BREAKING NEWS: a win for multicultural Australia

I wanted you to know straight away, just moments ago, the Senate here in the Australian Parliament threw out the Government’s changes to Australia citizenship laws.

That means they have said no to the university level English test. It means they have said no to the three year additional wait that was going to cause some people to wait more than ten years before they got to become Australian citizens.

Because of the university English test, some people were going to live here their entire working lives and were never going to be able to become Australian citizens.

So right now, we’ve just had the win that you’ve been campaigning for.

I want to give you full credit, because let’s not pretend this was done by members of Parliament.

This was done by an extraordinary community activism that you were part of and you made sure that you never wasted a conversation.

This will make a real difference to the lives of people who will become good Australian citizens.

This will make a massive difference in people’s lives.

And will guarantee that a whole lot of people who were never going to hear the words ‘Welcome home’ will now be able to make a pledge of commitment to Australia.

Now the Government may well have another go at this.

The Government may well come back and try again.

So, if you are eligible for Australian citizenship under current law my advice is don't waste time.

Get your application in under current law. Get your application in before the government tries to do this again.

I was Minister for Citizenship for a time and when I was, I got to write the message that was read out of every citizenship ceremony and the message that I had finished with the words ‘Welcome home.’

We want to be able to say ‘welcome home’ to you.

Those of you who are ready to become good Australian citizens, those of you who are ready to make your pledge of commitment to Australia. Get your applications in. Make the application go through the existing test. Make your pledge of commitment to this country and the Labor Party will be very, very proud to say back to you ‘welcome home’.

No doubt the government will come back.

There will be another attempt at this.

But right now enjoy the victory, enjoy the moment and know your activism made this happen.



Congratulations.


Tony.

一个封闭排外的澳大利亚，不值得入籍；一个文明开放的澳洲,无需入籍。

Migrants wanting to become Australians have been given an assurance that their applications will be processed under the current rules.

Immigration Minister Peter Dutton confirmed to ABC News this evening that applications received after April 20 would be processed under existing laws following the rejection of amendments by the Senate.

The government's controversial citizenship changes have suffered a major blow in the Senate despite a last-ditch bid by Peter Dutton.
By Marija Zivic

The Turnbull government's controversial citizenship changes have suffered a major blow in the Senate despite a last-ditch bid by Immigration Minister Peter Dutton for crossbench support.

Thousands of migrants are no longer in limbo after plans to make it harder to become an Australian citizen were killed off in the Senate.

A spokesperson for Mr Dutton has confirmed to SBS News that migrants who have already put in applications for citizenship, and those who still plan to, will be assessed under current requirements rather than the tougher measures announced by the government earlier this year.

The changes included making permanent residents wait four years to apply instead of one, introducing university-level English language tests and giving extra powers to the immigration minister.

The revised start date for the changes would be from 1 July 2018 if the government can seal a deal to get them through parliament.

SBS News understands all applications received until then will be processed under the existing law.

A rarely used tactical move pulled by the Greens resulted in the legislation being struck from the Senate notice paper after the Coalition failed to meet a 7:20pm deadline to bring it on for debate in the upper house on Wednesday.

“There are many thousands of people whose lives have basically been put on hold by Peter Dutton and from today those people can move forward with their lives, make choices about their future and have confidence that their applications will be assessed under the current legislation,” Greens Senator Nick McKim told SBS News.

Mr Dutton tried to gain crossbench support by offering to water down some of the more controversial parts of the bill including the English language requirements.

Support from the Nick Xenophon Team voting bloc is crucial for the government if it is to pass the legislation but NXT has, so far, said it will not budge.

The government can re-introduce the citizenship bill but will need Senate support to do so.

A spokesperson for Mr Dutton said the government was committed to strengthening citizenship and negotiations would continue with the independent senators.

之前NXT否决时就知道没戏了 听说至少还有一俩个crossbencher也是反对

那就根本不用谈了 就算政府把NXT拉回来也没用

本月初开始，针对所谓的420之前的老政策申请者，审核重新开始了 。据较为可靠的小道消息，移民局要求在11月结束前处理完所有419在内的‘原政策申请者’，之后才开始继续审核420新申请者

总算有个暂时的句号了。赞

之前缓慢的审理速度应该结束了，马上加速！

站直了

420之后的不也应该按老政策吗？
