NZ top source of immigrants to Australia

New Zealand is now the number one source of immigrants to Australia.

In an announcement that is sure to spark more debate on the brain drain from New Zealand, Australia announced overnight that New Zealand has overtaken Britain as the largest source country for permanent migrants to Australia.

Departmental statistics released by Immigration Minister Kevin Andrews show arrivals from New Zealand reached 23,906 last year, up from 19,033 the previous year.

The number of UK migrants remained steady at 23,223 during 2006-07.
