What happened
The Centre for Independent Studies warned that deliberately reversing net overseas migration poses a threat to national economic health. Pauline Hanson, leader of One Nation, is promising to engineer this reversal if she wins government. One Nation's economic team argues that this extreme plan would lower housing costs.
