The government have strengthened our migration program, including through legislation to ensure applications for temporary and permanent entry to Australia are subject to extensive background and character checks so that any individual who may pose a threat to Australia is denied entry. The government do not support a travel ban and will continue to assess each individual application on its merits, consistent with our non-discriminatory migration policy.
