NET OVERSEAS MIGRATION IN AUSTRALIA
NET OVERSEAS MIGRATION IN AUSTRALIAAbstractThe report assessed the net overseas movement in Australia and its effects regarding the universal interest principle. Australia's population growth rate though fluctuating annually have is considerably high compared to other nations belonging to the OECD. This high rate ismajorly due to the enormous influx of immigrants flowing into the country. This number hit its peak in 2008 with the temporary immigrants increasing massively. Afterwards, there were legislations to try control it. The significant shift which has occurred ever seen is the growth in the immigrants from Asia to surpass those originating from the United Kingdom with the government more focused on allowing in more immigrants who come to Australia for the sake of pursuing career and education.Even though a growing population results in a colossal GDP, the effects of the fast-growing Australian society is becoming more of a problem than the arising benefits. The infrastructuredevelopment in the country is currently not at per with the increase in population. Also, there is growing stress in the housing sector. As much as this means more profit for the banking sector, it adds little gain to the lower income population who are spending more to access the services.The conclusion is that a faster growth will lead to environmental pollution, a burden to the community regarding taking care of the elderly, faster depletion of the natural resources and ageneral increase in poverty level. The government, therefore, need to change its objectives I regard to the population growth and put more measures to regulate those entering the country

NET OVERSEAS MIGRATION IN AUSTRALIAIntroductionNet overseas migration (NOM) is the net gain or loss regarding the population via the processes of emigration and immigration. The net profit or loss is assessed on a global travel duration of a star in or out of the nation for a one-year period and above. In the current method of gauging the final net overseas migration in Australia, it is based on travelers’ actual stay duration or absence using 12/16-month principle. Originally the NOM estimation is done through modeling on passengers' behaviors’ pattern seen in the final NOM estimates over the same period one year ago. The NOM is essential to evaluate as it has economic and social consequences to the citizens of the country [ CITATION Bur01 \l 2057 ]. For this purpose, our report will focus on the trend in net overseas migration and how it has influenced the Catholic social teaching of the "the common good."Australia is ranked as one of the top countries where immigration is highest around the globe joined in the list by Canada, USA, and New Zealand. From 1945 when the first federal immigration portfolio was developed more than 7.5 million individuals have migrated and settled in Australia. In June 2015, the Australis residents' born overseas was valued to be 28.2% of the entire population a number which is considerably higher compared to other nations under OECD [ CITATION Jan17 \l 2057 ].In the past, people from the United Kingdom formed the major block of individuals who are moving permanently into Australia this trend changed in the year 2010-2011 when the Chinese surpassed the UK for the first time in Australian history. From then onwards it has been China and India who provide the highest number of immigrants. Even though New Zealand citizens do feature highly in the settler arrivals value, they are omitted from the Australia migration program unless they apply for and are given a permanent visa [ CITATION OFa01 \l 2057 ].
