Submission: Australia’s Humanitarian Program 2023–24

The Settlement Council of Australia (SCOA) is grateful for the opportunity to make a submission regarding Australia’s Humanitarian Program 2023–24. Australia’s commitment to resettling refugees is fulfilled through the Humanitarian Program, which is complemented by settlement services that are vital in assisting humanitarian entrants as they start their new life in Australia. We acknowledge and appreciate the Australian government’s commitment to the Humanitarian Program, but we have a few recommendations for the program below.
