Hi Alan Eventually I forced myself to watch the vid of the Minister for Immi. Do you have any idea who his two minders were, please? The one in the striped tie did not stop fidgeting and the other one looked cowed and guilty to me. Cheers Gill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just a doorstop, and possibly emphasises the political nature of the changes. Cheers, George Lombard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just a doorstop, and possibly emphasises the political nature of the changes. Cheers, George Lombard Hi George Thanks very much. I imagined that the other two men "must be" DIAC Officers, so I was wondering who they were and what their jobs were. I've never clapped eyes on Peter Speldewinde or Sandi Logan so I wondered whether they were the two with the Minister. On a different point, please, the new State Migration Plans. In one of the statements made today, I have the impression that the Minister needs the Gov-Gen's signature before he can introduce the SNPs. Is that right or have I misunderstood the statement, please? If the G-G's signature is needed, does that mean that the proposals for the new SMPs have to be thrashed out in Parliament first? Many thanks Gill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest waynenicola Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 How do you guys think the new sol will effect the priority groups now and when do you expect an announcement on existing applications ?? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Wannabeoz Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 How do you guys think the new sol will effect the priority groups now and when do you expect an announcement on existing applications ??thanks I'm not on the new SOL, and although I have state sponsorship my occupation is now closed. I totally expect to be capped and ceased (after a few years when they have had plenty of time to make interest on my money of course!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest waynenicola Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 I have state sponsership and i am on the new sol(carpenter) so i hope that will see me bumped back up to cat 2 and get my co sooner rather than later.
