Submission to the Productivity Commission Study on the Economic Impacts of Migration and Population Growth
04 May 2008
Sustained population growth is an important element in ensuring Australia’s long-term economic growth and prosperity.
Australia’s population – its size, growth and diversity – will have a significant role in driving productivity, innovation and economic growth in the future.
In this light, the Productivity Commission’s proposed research into the economic impacts of migration and population growth is welcome.
This research should provide a welcome addition to the debate on the economic benefits for Australia of sustained migration and population growth.
