My question is to the Minister for Human Services and the Minister Assisting the Minister for Workplace Relations. I refer to the minister’s comments, reported in the media today, where he was critical of young Australians being unemployed while Australia has a skills shortage. How are unemployed young Australians meant to access jobs when his government allows these jobs to be advertised only overseas under the 457 temporary work visa and not in Australia at all?
