> Australia’s opposition Coalition is expected to announce a sharp reduction in net overseas migration, with a target below Labor’s but above One Nation’s proposed 130,000 annual limit. The plan is expected to preserve working-holiday places, prioritise skilled arrivals, link migration to housing completions and tighten rules for students and people without a lawful pathway to remain.
