Trends in Residence Approvals 2001/2002 - Volume 2

This is the second annual ‘Trends in Residence Approvals’ report. The broad aim of these reports is to provide background data on trends in residence approvals in a readily accessible format, and to make this information available to support policy decisions and to generally increase the public’s understanding of immigration trends. Trends in residence approvals are monitored and will eventually form a time series to enable comparison of recent trends with those identified in previous years. The current report provides data for the 2001/2002 financial year, from 1 July 2001 to 30 June 2002. Below is a brief summary of residence approvals in this year. More detailed information on approvals in each residence category can be found in the relevant sections of the report.
