Dr JAMES McDOWALL (ACT): Can the Minister explain the delays in the skilled migrant category processing, given that no expressions of interest have been selected since April 2020, and tell us what plans there are, if any, for Immigration New Zealand to address these delays in this category and return to, say, 90 percent completed within six months, as opposed to the 27 months at present? Secondly, does Immigration New Zealand think it is feasible to invite the more than 11,000 expressions of interest to apply for residence when selection resumes, and how long will it take to process those applications? My final question on residency is: is the Minister considering shifting the skilled migrant category application process to being online-based, given the sophistication in document verification technology that is available today?
