Australia is preparing for a migration boom in its 2023 budget plan. The government plans to provide $1.5 billion to fund new infrastructure, services, and support for the influx of immigrants that is expected to arrive in the years ahead. The money will go towards building more housing and schools, as well as creating jobs and training programs for immigrants. It will also be used to boost investment in regional areas, which are expected to be the primary destinations for new migrants. The budget also includes funding for research into the economic and social impacts of migration, as well as an increase in humanitarian intake from people seeking refuge from war and persecution. The government hopes that this will help to create a more welcoming and integrated society for all Australians.
