ABS data released today shows the estimated resident population in all states and territories. This is the compilation of the natural rate of population growth, overseas migration, and interstate migration.
“Population growth has slowed as net overseas migration, previously a source of growth, has reversed and turned negative,” added Mr Ward.
“Migration is an important source of young people, including workers. The reversal of migration is almost certainly contributing to the worker shortages that businesses are experiencing.
“A return to stable and reliable skilled migration pathways is central to a return to stable economic growth,” concluded Mr. Ward.
Population growth has fallen significantly but remained positive in: Queensland (+1.11 per cent), Western Australia (+0.67 per cent), New South Wales (+0.30 per cent), South Australia (+0.14 per cent) and Tasmania (+0.03 per cent). Population growth has turned negative in: the Australian Capital Territory (-0.07 per cent), the Northern Territory (-0.24 per cent) and Victoria (-0.49 per cent).
"A slow return of overseas migration is easing the adverse impact of a loss of workers from Australia’s two largest states,” stated Tim Reardon, HIA’s Chief Economist.
