I think there is a risk. There is always a possibility that work permits are issued for jobs that are not authentic. Much clearer guidance certainly needs to be given. We noted in the report that there was a fair bit of confusion about whose responsibility this actually was. Clear direction needs to be given to Citizenship and Immigration and HRSDC so they work out between themselves who will do this work and actually assess if the job appears to be valid.
