WHITE PAPER: Home affairs in bid to revamp migration setup
The Department of Home Affairs has put forward ambitious new proposals to revamp SA’s migration system to curb economic migration, while also attracting skills.
The department believes the cost of the revamp will be money well spent.
The department is due to present a white paper on international migration to the Cabinet this week. Among the proposals are delinking residency and citizenship and the introduction of long-term visas based on a points and skills system.
