Actions that can be taken immediately:

• Increasing transparency around the skilled occupation list.

• Aligning emerging labour trends to occupation codes.

• Creating a dedicated path for intra-company transfer of employees to Australia

• A regular Productivity Commission review of the temporary skilled visa program.

• Better aligning the Skilling Australia Fund Levy to alleviate the skill shortages.

• Moving the levy collection to the visa approval stage.

• Creating an independent committee to analyse and consult on the skilled occupation lists.
