Labour s manifesto signalled an overhaul of partnership visas, reducing barriers to the parent category and reviewing Pacific immigration.
It said it would set aside one in 10 managed isolation places for overseas workers.
Kris Faafoi, who took over as Immigration Minister from Iain Lees-Galloway before the election, retained the portfolio in yesterday s Cabinet announcements. Phil Twyford takes over as Associate Minister of Immigration.
Having ruled out a coalition with the Green Party, and with New Zealand First not returning to Parliament, the government s plans on immigration - as outlined in its manifesto - set out key policy changes.
