The government’s big migration announcement is on hold as ministers scramble to craft a politically savvy plan to slash net migration by 75,000 over two years — a target already baked into the budget but requiring new policies to hit. With Cabinet wary of backlash from the Greens and concerns over economic fallout, PM Albanese plans to return from leave to personally oversee the rollout. Frustrated by past forecasting failures — they overshot by nearly 300,000 migrants last year — officials now aim to tighten visa controls, crack down on overstays, and curb family and backpacker visas. Expect major policy shifts in weeks as they chase control without repeating costly mistakes.
