I have a couple of concerns. One is that intentions are not law. The intentions may very well encourage certain groups to stay permanently. But would there be a fair mechanism to do that? Would it come down to present-day security concerns, or the minister's concerns about someone's politics? We don't know, and I would be concerned about that because it would not be written legally.
The other problem I have is that this is consistently being cited as a way to increase labour market responsiveness. This labour market responsiveness is being done as a temporary way to bring in people to feed that, instead of using permanent immigration to channel people into the labour markets.
