Proposal
Contact officer/s:
Pitch:
The Current proposal is based on travel restrictions imposed by the government of Australia both
for education and tourism purpose. It has been seen and analyse that a larger number of students
across the world including Chinese students and many more comes to Australia every year with
the purpose of study. But the recent conditions of the Covid-19 has created a restriction and
hampered the global human mobility that is creating many challenges for international students
currently studying in Australia and wants to pursue their further studies from the university of
Australia.
Description:
The various travel limitations that are imposed by the government to prevent the spread of the
covid-19 has created a cautious behaviours and severely hampered the overall cross border
mobility. Prior to the covid-19, Australia tend to welcome a 28000 foreign visitors every day for
vacation, school or job purpose and bought a revenue of $65 billion worth of products and
service. Further, it has been observed and find out that the education related products accounts
for the one third of the total export revenue (Cairney and Wellstead, 2021). Thus, it has become
vital and important for the Australian governed to comping up with a more liberal covid-19 policy
to ensure better educational services and higher revenue earnings for the government even the
times of Covid-19. Further, implication and adoption of some new covid-19 policy has also
become important and vital for the Australia government to maintain and enhance its
attractiveness for foreign students and visitors to maintain its higher revenue and productivity
level.
Strategic Alignment:
This measure will certainly be helpful for achieving the Departmental Policy Priorities as well as
government priorities as it will ensure that the different organizations take into account the same.
And that they have implemented the different covid-19 safety measures (Gauttam and et.al.,
2021). It can be said that the source of idea was during the meeting that was held at Minister’s
Office. This will ensure that the policy is implemented in an effective manner. The policy is a great
measure and it will make sure that the goals are achieved. The recommendation of the policy was

made during the meeting. Therefore, this will ensure that the goals will be achieved in an effective
manner.
Policy Problem or Opportunity:
There changed into a bit slowdown in educational trade liberalization to China from 2017 to 2019,
which liaison contacts partly blame to the developing contention for overseas students from
different English-speaking countries. South Asia has seen a massive growth in the number of
overseas college students, mainly the ones from India and Nepal. Over forty% of all brief graduate
visas issued in 2019 went to Indian or Nepalese graduates, consistent with liaison contacts. South
Asian college students have considered Australia's post-take a look at activity alternatives
attractive; they remark. Additionally, in 2019, visitor services exported from Australia totalled
roughly $23 billion. Australian tourism contains a ramification of enjoyment sports together with
traveling or paying visits to loved ones.
Role for Government:
One of the vital capabilities of presidency is policy-formation. It is the coverage which units the
assignment for management. It offers the framework inside which all moves for the
accomplishment of an objective are to be activated. Governments interfere in markets to address
inefficiency. In an optimally efficient market, assets are flawlessly allocated to people who want
them in the quantities they want (Wright and et.al., 2020). The government attempts to fight
those inequities thru law, taxation, and subsidies. Governments are accountable for supplying
offerings that people cannot successfully offer for themselves, which includes army protection,
hearth and police departments, roads, training, social services, and environmental protection. If
these revenues aren't enough to fund preferred packages, governments borrow cash.
Links with other initiatives:
There are various other initiatives that are already existing to solve the issue because of Covid-19.
It can be said that the respective measure of developing a policy is linked to the existing initiative
and developed while keeping the same in mind. International college students' continuous use of
online education is projected to assist promote training exports if global borders continue to be
closed. Pilot packages can also allow a confined variety of distant places college students to come
to Australia. These applications are most likely aimed toward maintaining students were enrolled
in on-line courses even outside Australia, according to the facts to be had. Most liaison contacts,
but, accept as true with that the wide variety of overseas college students enrolled will keep to
decline in 2021 so long as journey regulations are in vicinity.
Outcomes:

The elegance of Australia as a travel destination for overseas students and visitors will no longer
wane as soon as global travel is resumed. Australian officials say they've received positive press
coverage in different international locations for their reaction to the virus, and this has helped to
build Australia's image as a secure place. Contacts in the schooling enterprise say that the
perceived satisfactory of Australian stages has now not modified, and scholars are equipped to go
back for face-to-face education and the possibility to stay in Australia. People who might travel on
vacation might also as an alternative choose to live domestic and keep money or spend their
money on other objects and offerings.
Options:
The different options that were considered to address this issue were developing effective
policies, ensuring that the proper measures are taken. The splendor of Australia as a travel
destination for foreign students and site visitors will now not wane as soon as worldwide travel is
resumed. Australian officers say they've received tremendous press coverage in other nations for
his or her reaction to the virus, and this has helped to construct Australia's photograph as a secure
vicinity. Contacts inside the schooling commercial enterprise say that the perceived exceptional of
Australian stages has not changed, and scholars are prepared to go back for face-to-face
preparation and the possibility to stay in Australia.
Weaknesses of Proposal:
A negative hole is a state of affairs in which a economic institution's hobby-sensitive liabilities
exceed its hobby-touchy belongings. A poor gap isn't necessarily a terrible issue, due to the fact if
hobby prices decline, the entity's liabilities are repriced at decrease hobby quotes. In this scenario,
profits could growth. A investment hole is the difference between the money required to start or
maintain operations, and the cash currently reachable. Funding gaps are common in very younger
agencies, who may also underestimate the amount of capital had to maintain manufacturing till a
viable cash flow has been installed.
Consultation/Engagement:
During the development of the proposal, the different stakeholders were consulted to.
Stakeholders are commonly divided into two corporations; inner and outside stakeholders. As the
phrases advocate, inner stakeholders come from in the organisation and external stakeholders are
the ones out of doors the employer but with a vested interest in it. Internal stakeholders usually
include employees, managers and owners, but in some organizations can contain volunteers,
students, and so forth.
Risks and Mitigations:
Because maximum distant places students in Australia at the start of March decided to stay within
