The government thanks Professor Shergold for his detailed review into integration, employment and settlement outcomes for refugees and humanitarian entrants. The review was informed by targeted consultation with refugees, service providers, peak body organisations, academics, think tanks, business and industry groups, regional development organisations, youth settlement groups, and public servants working for Commonwealth, state, territory and local governments. Ninety people attended round table meetings, including refugees and other stakeholders; 57 submissions were received; and 134 case studies were made available to the review team. The cabinet will thoroughly examine the report and respond following due consideration.
